If I am using a hub, can I sniff a 2nd box by putting in the IP of that box?

I guess I could test it but thought I woud ask first.

I am not real sure but i think it has to be on tha same computer running EQ..
There might be a way but it is with linux

If your using a true hub, it should work, just make sure the ip you use is the one running everquest. The reason I said a true hub is that some hubs (notably linksys) act as "smart hubs" as they call them, or switches as the rest of the world calls them. Quite a few seq users know what I'm talking about :P

Thanks edgar, I know what ya mean. I'll give that a try.

Just need to dig out my hub now. Everything currently goes through a switch.
