On the 'tap' I had a small php based web frontend to start/stop tcpdump and to download the captured data.

Don't know if tcpdump can send data to another host, but I know _know_ that one can use tcpdump as a remote adapter in Wildpackets' OmniPeek. Maybe they offer some documentation (www.wildpackets.com). > if yes.. any resources for the same - From the bridge-utils package: "Description: Utilities for configuring the Linux ethernet bridge This package contains utilities for configuring the Linux ethernet bridge in Linux 2.4 or later. The Linux ethernet bridge can be used for connecting multiple ethernet devices together. The connecting is fully transparent: hosts connected to one ethernet device see hosts connected to the other ethernet devices directly." > or any suggestion will be welcome > > ram Best regards, Fabian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF3dU3OG44jO5akmwRAoTCAJ9WGU5UvbAJahV1BSEJziDwFAXmbACcCV9n CYM/dIWILtLmuJeK2wSQU0c= =yr/x -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
