I seem to only be able to get sniffit to work in interactive mode. When I try using the dump or normal mode, even when specifying the ethernet card to listen on, It just comes back with sniffit's usage and commands. interactive mode works just fine though.

Try

Code: Select all

sniffit -t <address>
where <address> is the address of the interface you want to watch. This will create dump files in the current directory. Add the -d switch to get a hex dump to the console.

See the manpage for further explanations.
