PPP Incoming Packet Watcher??

PPP Incoming Packet Watcher??

Post by Scott Jord » Mon, 30 Dec 1996 04:00:00



I run PPP to a static address provided by an ISP. Some of my buddies may
be having some fun with me; it'd be nice to catch them at it :)

Is there anything out there, in software, which can watch a PPP connection
and report on the source of the incoming packets? If so, what would that
be? Knowing the packet source, the source can be traced and dealt with.

Kernel is 1.2.13 (yeah, it's a bit old... but it works well!)

  Thanks,
   Scott

Don't know how well it will work with 1.2.13, but newer verisons of
tcpdump allow you to listen to the ppp interface...

1. Help - PPP for incoming dialin to AIX 4.3 from Win95 - but need packet forwarding

HI,
We are setting up PPP on AIX 4.3 and created a subnet on the ppp
interface from that of the Ethernet network.
We need to be able to have users ppp in from win95 and nt pcs to the
AIX box and have packets forwarded to any hosts on the ethernet lan
and another subnet as well.

has anyone done this who could help us with this.


tnx
