Hi With regard to a wireless sniffer, I'd have to concur with HC (Keydet), you'd have to go a long way to beat ethereal, not only does it run on *nix and w32 but it has more protocol savvy than many of it's commercial counterparts. By that I mean there are literally thousands of individuals across the Internet submitting decoders for the huge variety of different protocols they encounter.
One example of this is a commercial tool spotted 2 RIP packets with the same source and destination. Ethereal identified that the first was RIPv1 and the 2nd was RIPv2. This provided one extra piece of evidence that what I was seeing was in fact a scan. This example wasn't wireless. take care -andy Taliskers Network Security Tools http://www.networkintrusion.co.uk ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "James McGee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 10:47 PM Subject: Re: WLAN Sniffer > kismet > airsnort > wellenreiter > > to name a few... i remember seeing another post with the actual links > to some of these files. may want to search the list... > > /gene > > James McGee wrote: > > Can anyone recommend a non-*nix wireless sniffer that I can download an > > evaluation of? > > > > There appears to be a good few out there, but I cant manage to find a > > downloadable eval. > > > > Thanks > > > > JM > > > > _________________________________________________________________ > > MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
