localhost on Solaris

Hi !

I understand there is no solution to sniffing
for local traffic on Solaris since the
kernel always used the loopback interface for
that.

I suggest to write a STREAMS module to sit on top
of the loopback driver.

Does anyone know if the loopback driver is a 
STREAMS driver ? (Say, Solaris 8 and on?)

Any comments or advice on this ?

Thanks !
