Hmm... Figuring out the gateway... It depends on how desperate you are, really. I fired up ettercap, put it in passive OS identification mode, and then ran an 'nmap -sP' scan on my subnet. Ettercap picked up the traffic and correctly identified 2 of the 3 gateways on my subnet (labeling them with 'GW'). -Jason -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
