Try running tcpdump with the -l ('el') flag and piping to `tee` as documented in the manpage. The -n flag will also speed up tcpdump's work. You should get what you expect using those two flags together. Cheers - Erick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
