Try "TokenPeek" on a Mac.  Great tool, like the equivalent ether
sniffer.  Probably not quite as comprehensive as Network General's
"Sniffer" (PC-based) range, but far friendlier & easier to use.

Does all the standard grabbing, filtering, edit&retransmit, analysis,
etc.  The nice part is the Mac interface, which gets you up to speed
in as much (little) time as it takes to boot the Powerbook.
