I google searched the ng, and found lots of options for dealing with DOS
text windows, and also for dealing with web page info, but nothing related to actual packet sniffing- thanks keepitcool for your suggestion, but the program (even when I run it in a window using -w switch on startup) does not provide any options or info- it's not a dumb terminal window, its an actual program that continuously interacts with the server (sending new info, responding to user input, etc). So far it seems like my best bet is to find out if there is any way to sniff packets directly from excel- I'm sure I'll get a lot of info I _don't_ want as well, I'll just have to look at whatever does come across and try to figure out which data represents what I need. Does anyone have any ideas how I could grab a copy of packets as strings and paste them into rows in excel? Many thanks, Keith keepitcool wrote in article ...

Keith did you know following? Check properties of the cmd window in which you run the app. (Maybe you first need to switch to from FS to Window, (alt-enter) then right click the caption bar When you check QuickEdit box.. you can use your mouse, select/copy data from the dos box to windows clipboard. keepITcool < email : keepitcool chello nl (with @ and .) < homepage: http://members.chello.nl/keepitcool |
