27 Got wireshark installed.  Saved the results as a file.  Doesn't seem to
28 provide any info that is "sensitive" so attaching the file.  I think it
29 requires wireshark to open the file.  It is not text only and I didn't
30 see a way to do that either.  It's been ages since I used wireshark. 
31 It's changed, a LOT.  Still effective tho.

33 Thoughts?  It seems it can't negotiate a connection and just keeps
34 banging away at it.
