Is this hosted on an alternate site other than the geocities site which has
exceeded the xfer limit?

For a while, I have put it on 
http://www.Dunkel.de/download/GRE_sniffing.doc 
to help out.

Best regards,
Axel Dunkel

Subject: Using a Compromised Router to Capture Network Traffic


Hi all.

I have recently completed some experimentation into using a captured router
to sniff network traffic on a remote network.  This is in the same vein as
Gauis' article in Phrack 56 (Things to do in cisco land when you are dead).

I have tried to build on Gauis' work in that I terminated the GRE tunnel on
a Cisco router instead of a *nix machine.  I explored a couple of possible
scenarios for this, the net result being that it is possible to remotely
capture (bi-directional) network traffic using NO customised tools; all that
is required is one cisco router with vanilla IOS, and a machine that can run
snoop or tcpdump.

Anyway, if anyone is interested, the document describing the experiment and
results is available at http://www.geocities.com/david_taylor_au/
(Word 2000 format).  Or, contact me.

Regards,
Dave Taylor
