What does nmap show? As for Ethereal, gotta run upstairs now and find out just who is visiting www.createafart.com LOL or is there a way to tell within ethereal's output? Am off to find a good FM so I can RTFM on ethereal! Thank you for the info on ethereal Richard, nice network monitor - from what I can tell so far, looks like alot of ARP traffic, someone/something asking who has such and such IP. ARP - should that not be directed at my IP? Thanks Steve -- Linux user #280097 Machines #162480 #191825 http://counter.li.org -- Linux user #280097 Machines #162480 #191825 http://counter.li.org
