Dan,

  You do realize, don't you, that since both of these hosts are on a switch,
and are using unicast traffic to communicate with each other, that they
cannot be sniffed, don't you?

  You might read up on ethernet switching technology a bit before
answering that.

  Most people don't wear 2 condoms, you know.

Ted
