RE: Packet sniffers

["Roger A. Grimes" <roger () banneretcs com>]

I wrote a summary article detailing the pros and cons as I saw them over
the 6 most popular sniffers.

http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/42922/42922.html 

www.windowsitpro.com has a few dozen articles on sniffers besides mine.

Check www.packet-level.com for books and ebooks on sniffing.

Dear all,

I am interested to use a  packet snifer and I would like to know if
there a  site that compares various packet sniffers  to chose the most
suitable for me.
Apart from that,  I would like to know if there are available  Ebooks
on the web about packet sniffing tools especially Ethereal

Thanks in advance,

m.P
