I’ve put up a pre-alpha release of Network Analyzer, which has enough functionality to be moderately usable. The next step is to start filling out the functionality, adding more decoder plugins, and ironing out the bugs.
If you try it, let me know what you think of it so far.
Update: There seems to be some compatibility issues with libpcap on PowerPC systems (the PPC version of that library seems to omit the “fopen” function variants). I can work around this, and will post an update when I do. Also, I hear that libpcap is not installed by default, but instead comes with the Developer Tools. Is this true? If you have a Mac without the Developer Tools installed, can you see if you have the library /usr/lib/libpcap.A.dylib?

I just downloaded it, and from your comments wasn’t expecting you to have got that far with it yet. I just pulled build 31.
Wow! It’s already a very useful tool, and has gone straight into /Applications.
I’m off to see if you’ve got an announcement mailing list…
