Hi,
	I have two old machines on my ethernet talking some
proprietary protocol.  Is there a way to monitor their
packets?  Since there is NO other traffic on this ethernet I
don't need to be too selective: I can afford to listen to ALL
the packets that are sent.

	Any help will be appreciated (BTW I have 386BSD + patchkit
0.2.3).

	Thanks.
