Microsoft's Network Monitor (The advanced version that comes with
SMS) is able to sniff dial-up connections. It's a great tool if you
are starting to learn about PPP, or if you need to troubleshoot PPP
issues.

Sat on the end of a dismal 56k dial-up I fired up some
sniffers to look at
how a web based app works.

On my win2k laptop I usually carry "analyzer" (which is awesome),
"tcp dump", "sniffer pro" and "ethereal" (I have left my Linux
laptop at home).

None of these seem to allow me to look at the traffic across the
PPP interface.
