I am currently working on a Yahoo! Messenger program and I am using Ethereal
extensively. My problem is this. Under an older version of Messenger,
Ethereal could pick up the YMSG packets and sort them into nice sections
with no problem. With the latest version, Yahoo! has moved from port 5050
to 119 which is well known to be the NNTP port. I can only assume Yahoo!
done this to solve some of their firewall problems. Now when I sniff my
Yahoo! Messenger traffic Ethereal tries to read the packets as NNTP. This
is completely the wrong protocol and is almost of no value to me. Is there
a way to get the old feature back?
