hi, it is possible by a sort of arp-attack ("man-in-the-middle"...) for example ettercap could do such a job...there a some programs to detect (and prevent?) such attacks like arp-watchdog, but the best way after my knowledge is a switch with managment-function/arp-control-options.

Hi, Iam a bit new to network securities.We have a switched network and to my knowledge a hosts' data cannot be sniffed by other host by runnning tcpdump.But Iam receiving complaints from few users that their data is being changed/manipulated.Is this possible? How can I avoid this at the host level?Does this mean the server has been compromised?Any help or pointer in this aspect would be highly appreciated. thanks in advance. kaushal.
