- MacTCP Watcher v1.1.0 displays the internal data of MacTCP. It shows
- this Mac's IP, DNS name, and all the internal information that MacTCP
- provides (much of which I don't understand, so please don't ask me
- what it means!). It will also list all the currently open TCP connections,
- and the information on each of them. As well, it allows you to test
- MacTCP and your network, using the ICMP Ping protocol, the UDP & TCP
- Echo protocols (you'll need a machine that supports the echo protocol,
- most unix machines do, and I've implemented them in MacTCP Watcher,
- so you can run the program on two Macs and test the network between
- them as well as the MacTCP configuration on each of them), and it
- tests out the DNS by looking up the name of a given IP or IP of a given
- name. It should be useful to people having MacTCP configuration troubles,
- network or Domain Name System problems, or the cronically curious.
-
- MacTCP Watcher is free, and comes with a free copy of Eric Behr's
- MacTCP Info document (thanks Eric!), so if you have MacTCP problems,
- check it out.
-
- Changes since 1.0.0
- ICMP (Ping) and UDP test have been totally revamped, now they give
- you min/max/ave, sent/returned/lost, continuous tests, etc.
- Connection list should always update.
- You can Copy the DNS IP or Name after a successful DNS query.
- Added a hack to allow disabling of Reverse Name Lookup Failed messages.
-
- Have fun,
