How can i know if there a sniffer running in my network?

When you wake up one day to find that you're 0wn3d :-)

Seriously, about the only way I can think of to detect a sniffer with
its transmit leads cut is with a Time Domain Reflectometer (TDR) and
look for an unexplained impedance bump.


try your detection tools on a simple sniffer at
http://exploitlabs.com/files/misc/xsniff.zip

does not use pcap or any other "cap" libs that I am aware of.
