I am trying to get a good idea of what "sniffer" to run on my network. I have tried Sniffer Pro 4.6 and Eterpeek NX so far, I like both. What else is there? What do all of you use/recommend?

Lee,

Have a look at this site : http://www.packet-level.com/

There you might find some answers on your question from an expert in analyzing, Laura Chappel. One of her points is that both the products you mention are in the top league of capabilities and possibilities. It's just which one YOU like best.

Personnally I like Etherpeek best for it is a lot cheaper than Sniffer. Etherreal is nice for a start but just misses the sleek look and feel of the other products.

Regards, Maarten Sjouw.
