If you are looking for a good packet capture program, look at Wireshark. It is great, provides cross platform packet analysis...wonderful for quick diagnostics when developing with remote services. However, capturing localhost from wireshark is not straight forward. Since localhost doesn't actually move the packets through the hardware, you've gotta do some special things. The following page talks a bit about it: CaptureSetup/Loopback - The Wireshark Wiki The quick and dirty howto on wireshark localhost packet capture: Add a default route for your IP: This will make all your packets go out to the gateway and back.route add <your_IP> mask 255.255.255.255 <the_gateway> metric 1 Then, when you are done...make sure to remove it route delete <your_IP>Very nice. I love etherreal/wireshark....checkout the wiki.
