AquaEthereal 1.2
AquaEthereal is an application launcher for the Unix-based Ethereal network monitoring program more>>
Ethereal is a sophisticated GUI for the tcpdump command-line utility, and runs under Fink or DarwinPorts in Apples X11 environment. While the program can be launched from within the X11 application, it requires administrator authorization (a user password), and the AquaEthereal launcher provides a convenient way to start the program.
To begin Ethereal, just click on the AquaEthereal icon in the Dock. This launches the X11 environment. AquaEthereal then prompts you for an administrator password, since Ethereal itself must be run under these conditions.
Enhancements:
- Now a universal binary.

EtherPEG 1.0
EtherPEG displays all of the GIF and JPEG images that are being transferred on your network. This is especially fun for viewing the images that come from visited webpages on a AirPort wireless more>> EtherPEG displays all of the GIF and JPEG images that are being transferred on your network. This is especially fun for viewing the images that come from visited webpages on a AirPort wireless network.
It works by capturing unencrypted TCP packets off your local network, collecting packets into groups based on TCP connection (determined from source IP address, destination IP address, source TCP port and destination TCP port), reassembling those packets into order based on TCP sequence number, and then scanning the resulting data for byte sequences that suggest the presence of JPEG or GIF data.
EtherPEG works with any TCP/IP network, including Ethernet networks and wireless networks like AirPort, as long as the data is not encrypted. If the data is encrypted using IPSEC, or Virtual Private Network (VPN) products like PGPNet, or Web Browser SSL encryption, then third-parties cannot view your data. The source code is included in the download. It was featured at the MacHack 2000 conference.
Any TCP/IP network.
Ethernal 1.2
Ethernal - visualize all incoming & outgoing Ethernet packets more>>
I wanted to learn how to read raw Ethernet packets on MacOS X. After going through several examples, I ended up writing this little piece of software.

Main features:
- Reads all incoming/outgoing Ethernet packets
- Displays the packet content in hexadecimal/ascii
- Finds any string in packet
- Filters packets
- Dynamic display width
- Save/load packets to disk.

goSerial is an application that lets you talk to serial devices more>>
This type of application is often refered to as a terminal, because it mimics the behaviour of the terminal hardware that was used to communicate with servers and mainframes in the old days.
While only few people need to talk to server machines through serial cables today, there are a lot of other devices that use some sort of serial connection:
Modems
Routers
Cell Phones
Communications Equipment (e.g. Packet Radio)
Industrial or Medical Equipment
Although most new Macs come without an old style serial port, many of them feature an internal modem that acts as a serial device.
You can also get serial adapters for the USB port or PCI cards with serial ports and use those to talk to external serial hardware.
Enhancements:
- build as a Universal Binary
- time limit removed.
PacketForward 0.7.1
PacketForward - IP packet capture/forward application based on libpcap and libnet more>>
PakcetForward is a very useful command line tool that listens on one network interface for UDP and TCP packets and then injects them on the same or another network interface changing the destination address.
In order to get PacketForward to work, you have to have libpcap, libnet 1.0.2a and Nemesis installed on your system. BSD systems like Mac OS X have libcap preinstalled.
Enhancements:
- The makefile now uses the libpcap that is preinstalled on Mac OS X.
- The distributed Mac OS X (Intel) binary is now compiled to use the libpcap that is preinstalled on Mac OS X.
- Corrected minor errors in the readme file related to usage of PacketForward.
- Added a script to ease usage of PacketForward.

EyeTV plugin SDK 1.0
EyeTV plugin SDK - Receives plugged and unplugged notifications more>>
- EyeTV 200 (analog)
- EyeTV 300/310 (DVB-S)
- EyeTV 400/410 (DVB-T)
- EyeTV 500 (ATSC)
The plug-in receives plugged and unplugged notifications. It can request or release individual PIDs within the MPEG-2 transport stream, and most importantly, it has access to transport stream packets in real time, as they arrive from the device.
EyeTV plugin SDK is called before EyeTV looks at the packets, so it is even possible to modify the data.
The SDK includes a plug-in sample Xcode project as an easy way to demonstrate EyeTV plug-in functionality. This plug-in displays information about the captured MPEG-2 transport stream.
Switzerland 0.1
Free and open source tool for testing networks more>> Free and open source tool for testing networks
Switzerland is a tool for testing networks, ISPs and firewalls developed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation (www.eff.org).
Switzerland will spot IP packets which are forged or modified between clients, inform you, and give you copies of the modified packets.
Enhancements
Lots of bugfixes and some new features:
- Make the messages that Switzerland gives users less cryptic and more informative! Especially
- Improve on the notification of modified/forged packets in versions 0.0.x. In the case of modifications, provide specific reports of which packet fields have been modified, from what and to what. In the case of injections/forgeries, provide tcpdump-style representations of the packets.
- Include a new command line tool, study-switzerland-pcaps, to perform the above analysis based on the -in and -out pcap modification/forgery logs produced by Switzerland. This will be useful both for old logfiles from 0.0.7 and for newly created logs.
- Reduce the incidence and duration of the "you cant connect, because we already have a connection from your IP" problem.
- Fix several internal bugs in the server, which 0.0.7 "handled" by catching exceptions and trying to ignore them.
- When modified/forged packets are observed, dont tell other parties what your NIC and routers MAC addresses are
Internal improvements and adjustments:
Refactor things out of Switzerland.py:
- Matchmaking is now separated and easier to understand
- Forgery context operations are now part of SwitzerlandLink.py
- There are some minor but incompatible changes to the wire protocol, in which reports on forgeries are passed around with the fo-context and forged-details messages.
- We have some traceroute collection infrastructure now, although were not using it yet
