Hi!

I've been working on developing an open-source tool for passive
NAT detection in campus networks, e.g. wireless APs. I have a
working alpha kit that builds two tools: a passive "sniffer" to
which traffic can be mirrored, and an inline (read "man-in-the-
middle") tool for network registration systems. I'm probably
not the worst C programmer in the world, but I'm certainly
nowhere near the best, so I thought I would ask if any of you
with lots of experience with threads, sockets, and libpcap
might be interested in contributing, even if only comments/
suggestions for improvement.

While additional features might be added later, right now
we're talking about ~2500 lines of code, if that. If anyone
is interested, take a look at the following for details:

(And yes, I know that the basic idea can be thwarted, but
find something that can't be!)

TIA,
Robert
