Hi,

I am trying to analyse the communication between several CORBA components.
For convenience, all these components run on the same computer. However, the
Ethereal tool does not capture packets that are sent within the local
machine. Is there a way to configure it (or the pcap infrastructure) to
capture these messages? I am assuming that such communication does exist and
just isn't captured (I tried a browser/tomcat connection just to make sure
it isn't some optimization by the ORB I'm using).

Thanks in advance
Ron Peleg
