Etherpeek is a network based tool. I think that is what wildpackets reference is but not sure. I have NO idea but if you have SMS 2003 in your environment they have a full-fledged network scanner. Its free and if you have it might be worth checking out. good luck.

Subject: [ActiveDir] LDAP Traffic Replay


Is anyone aware of a tool that will sit and watch LDAP traffic and track the
threads/clients/etc and then be able to replay that traffic?

Basically I am looking for a way to better judge DC perf in relation to
Exchange LDAP queries. Setting up a whole Exchange environment to test the
DCs is testing both Exchange and the DC and I am looking to try and narrow
that to just AD so I can answer some of the questions of GC/DC capacity
better than the 4:1 ratio business which everyone says isn't that great but
doesn't seem to have anything easy to do that is better. I would like to
track traffic to production GC/DCs and then be able to replay that LDAP load
as desired over and over again against various pieces of hardware with
different configs.
