I could use IPTRACE which I believe is the OS/2 equivalent of
tcpdump...
And I've already isolated it to being non-tcpip traffic.....
But I really would like to try to make a python program to monitor the
ports anyway.....In a nice clean clear format, unlike IPTRACE.... Just
isolate
the "dangerous" bits, and leave me in piece...
Plus IPTRACE dumps way toooooo much data to the drive/log. I would
easily start to eat up tooo much disk space...
