Re: network programming in php

Ok, let me rephrase this question: I need to write a program to monitor network packets. The OS is Linux. In this specific case I'll be monitoring packet traffic on a hub, but I'd like to do it in a more general fashion, just in case the unthinkable happens, and someone changes their mind. :) How would I go about getting started with this? ----- Original Message ----- From: Jerry Hutchings <jeremy.hutchings@i-dmedia.com> To: Kevin Beckford <kbeckford@bigorbit.com>; GPHP <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Thursday, June 29, 2000 11:13 AM Subject: RE: [PHP] network programming in php > Depends on the OS and the hub. > Done it in linux using sockets once, but that wasen't to a hub. > > Jerry > Programmer > I-D Media > > > I need to write a program to monitor packet traffic on a hub.
