Yeah, good point.  For any host you care about, that really is the
best/only way to go.  You're right, I should have mentioned that too :)  I
was really focussing in on how to see what's listening though :)  You're
abosolutely right though, I'm glad you did bring that up :)

Yeah, it is a rather twisted thing :)  That's a big part of my
job...sitting and staring at network traffic all the time, looking for
problems/attacks.  The difference though is that I'm asked to do it
:)  Well, actually to draw that analogy back to voyeurism...being asked to
watch might be just as deviant.  Hmm, I'll just drop it now, LOL ;)

C ya :)
