I want to run some automated testing over a weekend or some extended period of time. Ethereal captures tend to get quite large and cumbersome from my experience. I wanted to get a simple interface or use serweb to view them (if that's possible?) so that I don’t have to deal with several programs at the same time. And I thought since the data will be stored in MySQL, I can write a simple query to display the data if I needed to.

Thank you for your suggestion. But I would like to see if there is a method I can do it all in SER first.

Why not try Wireshark (former Ethereal)? Or even the tcpdump, which comes with most Linux distributions by default.

Subject: [Serusers] Capturing all messages for testing purposes

Hi,

I am setting up a testing environment with about 100 users. I would like to see who is online/registered, conversation times, protocols, etc. Basically I want to be able to capture all the messages for troubleshooting purposes, durability, compatibility, reliability, etc. Will the acc module do that for me, how do I set it up to capture the data?

Thank you very much,

Ben
