The "tcpdump" program (from Lawrence Berkeley Labs) is based on etherfind,
but much improved.  The latest release works on Ultrix 4.0 systems and later.

You can FTP it from gatekeeper.dec.com:pub/net/tcpdump-2.0.tar.Z

Your Ultrix kernel has to be configured to include the "packetfilter"
pseudo-device (this is NOT the default), you must have done
"cd /dev ; MAKEDEV pfilt" to create the necessary file system entries,
and you must run "/usr/etc/pfconfig +p -a" (as super-user) after each
reboot (i.e., in your /etc/rc.local file).
