If you have an interested in how FSERVE works, and what actually goes across the QL network.
Then this program will capture and save FSERVE network packets for you.
Note that it will not capture NETI, NETO, or bad packets. And it will only capture packets destined for the QL it is running on.

Re: ServerCap FSERVE network packet capture program
Hi Martin!
Firstly, thank you for developing this 'exploratory aide' for investigating how FSERVE type traffic flows over the wire.
I shall be using it over the coming weeks to analyse a simple LBYTES client request with the aim of implementing atleast partial client support on a ZX Spectrum to access files hosted on the QL.
I had previously been analysing raw NET signal traces to get a deeper insight in to how FSERVE is implemented - alongside pouring over the TK2 code itself, your FSERVE packet capture app is already making the job 10x easier!
I'll share what I discover in due course.
Thanks again!
Martyn.
