It understands a good bit of many different protocols and can dump out something similar. It can also filter based on their contents (i.e. I just want to see HTTP traffic that's POST requests ...).

  I saw that, and I wanted to install it on my FreeBSD machine, but my ports is out of date, so the ethereal version it knows about is gone. Not only that, but my version of cvsup no longer works, so I can't update ports until I update that.
  
  Of course, these things really are not all that hard, but my ability to remember how to do all this stuff has greatly suffered this year. Heck, it took me 15 minutes last week to figure out where the Trash was on Mac OS X :)
  
  Ethereal does look very cool though.
