Hello,
there was a network analyzer (sniffer) which name I don't remember. But I
remember that it worked as a proxy server, webbrowser needed to be set up to
that proxy, and after a request to open any page, that program asked (if it
was checked to do so) if that packed should be allowed. As I remember the
program was free. It has possibility to modify all the packets and send the
modified packet back to the origin destination. The program is for testing
security on servers. It was for windows.
Anyone know the name of it or of the similar program?

Greetings,
emot

Ethereal is very good. http://www.ethereal.com/ hard to setup but very
good. Solorwinds Orion is a excellent tool not free but very good.

You probably mean Wireshark [1] instead of Ethereal. The project has
been renamed.

Security is the one concept, which makes things in your life stay as
they are. Otto is a man, who is afraid of changes in his life; so
naturally he does not employ security.
