Packet sniffer

[Rein Hillmann]

Hi guys,

I need a lightweight OSX app (or safari/firefox plugin) that can inspect HTTP headers for me. The HTTP requests will be made from Safari or Firefox. Any idea of any?

Thanks,
Rein

Use the Mozilla addon: Live HTTP Headers

What about firebug? It works on osx (apparently)

I would second Peter's vote for HTTP Live headers in Firefox. Alternatively you could use http://www.charlesproxy.com/

If you're not in the mood to install anything you can use ngrep:

sudo ngrep -Wbyline -d lo0 port 80

lo0 is loopback, just specify the device you're testing through.
