Training Spotlight 2: Ethereal and the Art of Debugging Networks
I know that I break out Ethereal at the first sign of trouble on my network. I’ve used it to deal with security issues, client-server problems, and all sorts of other hairy situations. Though I’ve gotten pretty facile with it over the years through sheer trial-and-error, I’ve always wondered just how much more effective I’d be if I had someone who really knew what she or he was doing showing me the ropes.
Now you have the chance. Gerry Carter, one of the hardest working people in the training biz, is teaching a class on just this subject (Ethereal and the Art of Debugging Networks). He’s been a core member of the Samba team (who know more than anyone should have to know about protocols on a wire) and a LDAP/Kerberos guru so he has tremendous Ethereal chops.
