1 this has been a fascinating conversation. thanks boris for starting it.
2 i've tested almost everything that has been mentioned.
3
4 i often have to monitor my computers over slow text-only ssh sessions, so my
5 focus may be a bit different from others.
6
7 tcpdump (and ethereal/wireshark) of course can not be beat for looking inside
8 packets.
9
10 to see what connections are open and how much data they are transferring, in a
11 telnet/ssh situation i like bmon and iftop. i especially appreciate the
12 "graphical" feature of bmon.
13
14 in real graphical environments, i like etherape.
15
16 thanks to everyone who has contributed so much wisdom
