I created project.tcpdump, 5 meg quota, on rosebud:/vicepb, and
mounted it in /afs/{.,}sipb/project/tcpdump.

tcpdump is netwatch-like program, only it is much much better than
either Athena's netwatch or SunOS's etherfind.  The volume also
includes BPF, Van Jacobson's whiz-bang packet filter code.  It
requires kernel mods to use, however.

See the 1992 Winter USENIX proceedings for more info on BPF.
