Description:
 This application is a sniffing application for
KDE. It needs a lot of feature I'm working on it,
but it's not yet complete but you can use it. It
produces files compatible with Ethereal,
WireShark, tcpdump. The last code release is into
SVN KDE in trunk/playground/network . 

Help is always welcome, also like tester. If you
want to make KSniffer useful you're welcome. A
list of things to do is in TODO file.

The version 0.2 is a stable version. Feedbacks on
features and bugs are welcome. This version was
released with all available translations.
