RE: Suggesting an application

["DePriest, Jason R." <jrdepriest at firsthorizon dot com>]

If you install winpcap (http://winpcap.polito.it/), you can use windump
(http://windump.polito.it/).

If it is in your PATH while you are running a cygwin shell, you can run
it from there.  You can ssh into a system running cygwin's OpenSSH
server and run windump (assuming you installed it on the remote system).

It works just like tcpdump for the most part since it uses tcpdump as
the code-base.

Since Cygwin is just a subsystem and not a virtual machine of any kind,
recompiling libpcap or tcpdump would be sort of pointless.
