Re: Linux or Unix distribution for network sniffing

Implement a form of transparent firewalling. E.g. all traffic towards
TCP/80 is redirected towards HTTP Proxy (this is the simplest form, you
can do it using a DPI product and sort out on a protocol basis i.e.
HTTP/HTTPS)

If arbitrary computers can open arbitrary connections to the outside
world, you have bigger problems :)
