Ethereal-users: RE: [Ethereal-users] Server Client Model

You can sort of do that now.
I have a Linux box that sniffs some of our
routers on a regular basis. I setup a cron job to run a script that uses
tethereal to sniff and dump to a file. When something interesting happens I
can open the sniff files with ethereal and take a look. Right now, I open it
on the same system, but I would think that I could transfer the sniff file to
another system and open it with ethereal there.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Server
Client Model
Hello,
I have recently looked at ethereal and found it a great
sniffer. I think that having ethereal in a server client model would greatly
benefit people. The reason for this is simple. First of all a lot of people use
old linux boxes as a router and no run X on them. The same goes for servers.
Rarely do people run remote sessions of X. A nice example of a program that
works in a client server model is nessus. The nessusd can be installed on any
POSIX OS. Then there is a client that can then be used to connect to any nessus
server.
