- I wish to thank the following people for responding to my request for
- AppleTalk frame headers for the small network analyzer I'm writing. Only one
- person (thanx Scott Winders) sent me information more than "buy Inside
- Appletalk", so my analyzer is fairly weak on Ethertalk breakdowns (ie it does
- no breakdown of Ethertalk packets other than it is an Ethertalk packet).

- For people that are interested in the program, it runs on the sun4c platform
- under SunOS 4.1.x (Solaris 1.x). It takes one argument (the number of
- packets to grab) and generates a list of packets received (and decodes the
- packets I've been able to find time and info to decode), and then generates
- a packet breakdown. It's a very simple program. Time permitting, I will
- continue to add packet decoding and some filtering ability. People that
- can send me some details about decoding Ethertalk packets will definately
- get any updates I make to the program (call me cheap, but paying $40 for a
- book that I only need a couple of tables out of is pointless - I don't need
- to run an Appletalk net, I just need some general info).
