PacketCollector and dialup connections...

[ric0h]

Is PC unable to sniff dialup connections? I think there are still lots of ppl on 56k willing to help with the collection. -d gives me my LAN and 1394 connections only.

Would you be able to sniff a known IP over the internet of a person that is running EQ? If so, then my friend is willing to go to some zones, and have my computer sniff away.

Is PC unable to sniff dialup connections?I don't think so. I believe the pcap interfaces are for NIC's only. Give it a shot, though - couldn't hurt.

Would you be able to sniff a known IP over the internet of a person that is running EQ?Nope, in order to sniff, the traffic must be passing through your NIC. I would hope that generic internet traffic does not travel through Joe Schmoe's network card on the way to my PC.
