[Netkit.users] Connect Wireshark to UML machines

Hello (again),

I have maybe a clue: wireshark can accept the flag "-": read packets
from standard input. If uml_switch can print packets on standard output,
or if it is possible to open a connection to the socket of uml_switch
and print each packet (netcat ?)...

Could be fun...

Julien.
