Listen in on TCP conversations on the network your computer is attached to

Eavesdrop

Eavesdrop is an application for listening in on TCP conversations on the network your computer is attached to. See Notes for Newbies if you have not worked with a network sniffer before. I strongly suggest you look into other applications, such as tcpdump (available in Mac OS X 10.3 already) and Ethereal (available through fink and probably other sources).

What's New

Version 0.5a4:

  • Compiled as a Universal Binary. Promiscuous mode and file capture both work. Added a button to save images to TIFF (thanks, Will!). Removed the "Save" and "Save As..." menu options. Although this does not address the underlying issue, it will reduce questions until the next major release, which should fix that.
