Not surprisingly, mine as well. The key architectural issue was that we really didn't want to burden project teams with having to modify *both* of them, and it was fairly clear that wireshark was such a better answer that pouring more effort into snoop is just plain silly. As for the S10 argument, I don't buy it. The list of truly novel protocols being backported _today_ from Nevada/OpenSolaris to some (unscheduled?) feature Update release of S10 has to be extraordinarily short. Letting snoop wither as Obsolete -- once we have wireshark as a packaged alternative -- seems like the best answer. (I just looked, and I still don't see wireshark in the package archives. :-<) -- James Carlson 42.703N 71.076W <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
