This captures traffic on a remote machine with tshark, sends the raw pcap data over the ssh link, and displays it in wireshark. Hitting ctrl+C will stop the capture and unfortunately close your wireshark window. This can be worked-around by passing -c # to tshark to only capture a certain # of packets, or redirecting the data through a named pipe rather than piping directly from ssh to wireshark. I recommend filtering as much as you can in the tshark command to conserve bandwidth. tshark can be replaced with tcpdump thusly:
ssh root@example.com tcpdump -w - 'port !22' | wireshark -k -i -

dsniff is general purpose password sniffer, it handles *lots* of different protocols, but it also handles tcp-style expressions for limiting analyzed traffic - so I can limit it to work on pop3 only. Show Sample Output
trace http requests on the specified interface. uses the amazing tshark tool (http://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/tshark.html) Show Sample Output
The command is useful for monitoring the use of the boxes and their connection IP. Result file "sniff" is readable with GUI program "wireshark" or through CLI with the command: tcpdump -f "sniff" -XX Show Sample Output
if you have a capture file *.eth, and ajp protocol is in use on port 9009, you can paste the above command. You can change the fiile and port name Show Sample Output
Replace servername with your user. And make sure you have generated / copied your rsa_pub key to the remote server, or you will be asked for a password which will stuff up the output to wireshark.
#_connects src_IP dst_IP When_It_Happened_Secs Show Sample Output
This allows you to display the wireshark program running on remote pc to your local pc.
