I have had success with nessus as a port scanner to see what all is open from the 
outside.  One catch, this runs best on a linux box...don't know how you feel about 
that - the upside to the catch is that the software has no purchase price :)

G-Day all

For those who play dual roles with programming and networking, those
who can ask network personel, or those who just know...

Can anybody reccomend a good software package to monitor - sniff
network packets that does logging, and of course as many other
features for the least cost. We are about to be opening up our
companies through VPNS, and maybe other methods somewhere down the
road and really need to look more into the security learning curve.

Any good advice also weclome
