Super Sniffer is a combination of esniff.c and tcpdump. It also supports a plethora of other options including DES encryption on log files, user monitoring, forwarding logs regularly to a secondary host, and NFS file handle sniffing. It uses the libpcap and GNU regular expression pattern-matching libraries. Super Sniffer will incorporate in-kernel filtering using the Berkeley Packet Filter (bpf) on hosts that provide it. This allows network sniffing on busy networks with much fewer packet drops. Super Sniffer is meant to be a an all-in-one sniffer, combining all the features of the scores of architecture-specific sniffers around, and it will compile and sniff on virtually anything.
