Yet another way to monitor packets is to use the "tcplogger" and
"extract" programs, which are part of the TAMU (Texas A&M University)
security package.

Running on Suns, tcplogger will log all the tcp packets on your
ethernet, and extract will filter tcplogger output based on things
like source network, destination network, source port and destination
port. Using these tools, it should be simple to log all finger packets
leaving your network for external sites.

It's available for anonymous ftp from sc.tamu.edu:pub/security/TAMU.
