Subject: Caching a sniffer

> How can i know if there a sniffer running in my network?

There was a long thread on this subject in February on focus-ids:
  http://seclists.org/lists/focus-ids/2004/Feb/0028.html

One link to an interesting paper posted there:
  http://www.securityfriday.com/promiscuous_detection_01.pdf

There may be other ways, but the approach described in the paper would
probably work in most cases provided the interface in question was
configured with an IP.  Then again, I may not know what the hell I am
talking about...
