NAME
       etterlog	- Log analyzer for ettercap log	files

SYNOPSIS
       etterlog	[OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION
       Etterlog	 is  the log analyzer for logfiles created by ettercap.	It can
       handle both compressed (created with  -Lc)  or  uncompressed  logfiles.
       With  this tool you can manipulate binary files as you like and you can
       print data in different ways all	the times you want (in	contrast  with
       the  previous  logging system which was used to dump in a single	static
       manner).
       You will	be able	to dump	traffic	 from  only  one  connection  of  your
       choice,	from  only one or more hosts, print data in hex, ascii,	binary
       etc...

       TIP: All	non-useful messages are	printed	to stderr, so you can save the
       output from etterlog with the following command:

       etterlog	[options] logfile > outfile

	      Thus you can dump	for example a binary file from an ftp  connec-
	      tion  if	you print the data in binary mode, without headers and
	      selecting	only the ftp server as the source  of  the  communica-
	      tion.

       GENERAL OPTIONS

       -a, --analyze
	      Analyze a	log file and display some interesting statistics.

       -c, --connections
	      Parse the	log file and print a table of unique connections (port
	      to  port).  This option can be used only on LOG_PACKET logfiles.
	      On LOG_INFO logfiles it is useless.

	      TIP: you can search for a	particular host	by using the following
	      command:

	      etterlog -c logfile.ecp |	grep 10.0.0.1

       -f, --filter <TARGET>
	      Print only packets coming	from or	going to  TARGET.  The	TARGET
	      specification is the same	as in ettercap.
	      TARGET  is in the	form MAC/IPs/PORTs. With IPv6 support enabled,
	      TARGET is	in the form MAC/IPs/IPv6/PORTs.	Omitting one  or  more
	      of its parts will	be equivalent to set them to ANY. IPs and IPv6
	      will be treated as one part so that it's only set	to ANY if both
	      IPs  and	IPv6 is	omitted. This concludes	in a result most users
	      would expect.

	      If the log type is LOG_INFO the target is	used to	display	 hosts
	      matching	the mac, ip and	having the specified port(s) open. For
	      example the target //80  will  display  only  information	 about
	      hosts with a running web server.

       -r, --reverse
	      Reverse  the matching in the TARGET selection. It	means not(TAR-
	      GET). All	but the	selected TARGET.

       -t, --proto <PROTO>
	      Sniff only PROTO packets (default	is TCP + UDP).	This option is
	      only useful in "simple" mode. If you start ettercap in  interac-
	      tive mode	both TCP and UDP are sniffed.
	      PROTO can	be "tcp", "udp"	or "all" for both.

       -F, --filcon <CONNECTION>
	      Print packets belonging only to this CONNECTION.
	      CONNECTION is in the form	PROTO:SOURCE:DEST. SOURCE and DEST are
	      in the form IP:PORT.

	      example:

	      etterlog -F TCP:10.0.0.23:3318:198.182.196.56:80

       -s, --only-source
	      Display only packets that	are sent by the	source of the selected
	      CONNECTION.   This  option  makes	sense only in conjunction with
	      the -F option.

	      TIP: if you want to save a file transferred in an	 HTTP  or  FTP
	      connection, you can use the following command:

	      etterlog	-B -s -n -F TCP:10.0.0.1:20:10.0.0.2:35426 logfile.ecp
	      >	example.tar.gz

       -d, --only-dest
	      Same as --only-source but	it filters on the destination host.

       -n, --no-headers
	      Do not print the header of each packet. This option is useful if
	      you want to save a file in binary	format	(-B  option).  Without
	      the  headers  you	can redirect the output	to a file and you will
	      get the original stream.

	      NOTE: the	time stamp in the header is in the form:  Thu  Mar  27
	      23:03:31	2003 [169396], the value in the	square brackets	is ex-
	      pressed in microseconds

       -m, --show-mac
	      In the headers show also the mac addresses corresponding to  the
	      ip addresses.

       -k, --color
	      If  used	in conjunction with -F it displays the source and dest
	      of the  connection  using	 different  colors.  If	 used  with  a
	      LOG_INFO file it prints LAN hosts	in green, REMOTE hosts in blue
	      and GATEWAYS in red.

       -l, --only-local
	      Used displaying an INFO file, it displays	information only about
	      local hosts.

       -L, --only-remote
	      Used displaying an INFO file, it displays	information only about
	      remote hosts.

       SEARCH OPTIONS

       -e, --regex <REGEX>
	      Display only packets matching the	regex <REGEX>.
	      If  this	option is used against a LOG_PACKET logfile, the regex
	      is executed on the  payload  of  the  packet.  If	 the  type  is
	      LOG_INFO,	 the  regex  is	executed on all	the fields of the host
	      profile (OS, banners, service and	ethernet adapter).
	      NOTE: the	regex is compiled with the REG_ICASE flag (case	insen-
	      sitive).

       -u, --user <USER>
	      Display information about	this user.  The	 search	 is  performed
	      over all the user/pass couples collected across all hosts.

       -p, --passwords
	      Print only the collected account information for each host. This
	      prevents	the huge profile output. It can	be used	in conjunction
	      with the -u option to filter the users. An asterisk '*' used  in
	      front of an account represents a failed login attempt.

       -i, --show-client
	      Show  the	 client	ip address when	displaying the collected users
	      and passwords. It	may be useful when ACLs	are in place.

       -I, --client <IP>
	      Show passwords only coming from a	specific <IP>. This is	useful
	      to view all the usernames	and passwords of a client.

       EDITING OPTIONS

       -C, --concat
	      Use this option to concatenate two (or more) files into one sin-
	      gle  file.  This	is  useful  if you have	collected ettercap log
	      files from multiple sources and want to have an unified  report.
	      The output file must be specified	with the -o option and the in-
	      put files	are listed as normal arguments.

	      example:
	      etterlog -C -o outfile input1 input2 input3

       -o, --outfile <FILE>
	      specifies	the output file	for a concatenation.

       VISUALIZATION METHOD

       -B, --binary
	      Print  data  as  they are, in binary form. Useful	to dump	binary
	      data to a	file (as described above).

       -X, --hex
	      Print the	packets	in hex format.

	      example:

	      the string  "HTTP/1.1 304	Not Modified"  becomes:

	      0000: 4854 5450 2f31 2e31	2033 3034 204e 6f74  HTTP/1.1 304 Not
	      0010: 204d 6f64 6966 6965	64		      Modified

       -A, --ascii
	      Print only "printable" characters, the others are	 displayed  as
	      dots '.'

       -T, --text
	      Print only the "printable" characters and	skip the others.

       -E, --ebcdic
	      Convert an EBCDIC	text to	ASCII.

       -H, --html
	      Strip all	html tags from the text. A tag is every	string between
	      '<' and '>'.

	      example:

	      <title>This  is  the  title</title>,  but	the following <string>
	      will not be displayed.

	      This is the title, but the following will	not be displayed.

       -U, --utf8 <encoding>
	      Print the	packets	in  UTF-8  format.  The	 <encoding>  parameter
	      specifies	 the  encoding to be used while	performing the conver-
	      sion. Use	the `iconv --list` command to obtain  a	 list  of  all
	      supported	encodings.

       -Z, --zero
	      Print always the void string. i.e. print only header information
	      and no packet content will be printed.

       -x, --xml
	      Print the	host information in xml	form, so you can parse it with
	      your favourite program.

	      The DTD associated with the xml output is	in share/etterlog.dtd

       STANDARD	OPTIONS

       -v, --version
	      Print the	version	and exit.

       -h, --help
	      Print  the help screen with a short summary of the available op-
	      tions.

	      Displays only the	headers	of all connections except ssh on  host
	      10.0.0.2

       etterlog	-A -e 'user' -f	//110 dump.ecp

	      Displays only POP	packets	containing the 'user' regexp (case in-
	      sensitive).

       etterlog	-u root	dump.eci

	      Displays information about all the accounts of the user 'root'.

       etterlog	-e Apache dump.eci

       ple.tar.gz

	      Dumps in binary form the data sent by  10.0.0.1  over  the  data
	      port  of	FTP.  Since  the headers are omitted, you will get the
	      file as it was.
