You should be looking at dsniff by Dug Song (http://www.monkey.org/~dugsong/). Included is an X11 decoder to display clear-text passwords. You can probably modify this to fit your needs. -Joshua Wright Joshua.Wrightat_private -----Original Message----- From: Power Steve [mailto:steve.powerat_private] Sent: Friday, August 10, 2001 10:45 AM To: 'PEN-TESTat_private' Subject: sniffing X traffic. Hey all long time listener, first time caller. Anyone know if you can meaningfully sniff Exceed ( I guess it's the same as X) traffic? Im being a bit lame, my personal test lab is down atm, and I cant find anything on the net re sniffing and interpreting X traffic. If anyone would be so kind as to answer a specific question, could I see passwords etc in the traffic? thanks in advance.
