Hi Rene,

I'm not getting what you want to achieve in the end. What is your tool
supposed to do with the captured and *dissected* packages? Are you
just interested in specific fields of protocols which can already be
dissected by Wireshark?

What OS are you running? On Linux/Unix - could something like (e.g.)

bash$ ssh root@myhost tshark -T fields -e ip.src -e ip.dst | ./mytool

suit your needs? This traces remotely on "myhost", extracts the source
and destination IPs and pipes the text output to the locally started
application "mytool".

Regards,
Martin
