Re: [Ethereal-users] Script with tethereal, how to ??

[Stef <stefmit@xxxxxxxxx>]

The simplest way would be to capture the traffic with <something>*,
then reconstitute the TCP sessions in Ethereal (Analyze --> Follow TCP
stream). Of course you could do the same for AIM, but the sniffer I
mentioned earlier is very good at organizing and cleaning up data. You
do not need this for pop, or imap, or irc - of course, as long as they
do not run over TLS ...

*where something = tethereal, windump, tcpdump, etc.
