Hi

Given that Linux arrives with all this funky software, I'm finding it
hard to believe it doesn't come with tcpdump (a packet sniffer for TCP
networks). If I type tcpdump (root or not) it says command not
recognised (or similar). Yet to add to the feeling that I've missed
something, there's a man page for it.

Before I start to download it and get myself into all that, could
someone just confirm that, yes, really, it doesn't come with tcpdump.

Cheers
J
