socket watch

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
It would be really great to be able to provide one or more port numbers and
have this great tool change colour whenever there is activity on those ports.

There is no notification on Linux for Remote Desktop (VNC) - This would be
the perfect solution!

OOPS - This is obviously not a defect but a feature request.
Sorry, my bad.

I like this idea! It indeeds allows you to know when someone is trying to get 
into
your PC through VNC or SSH, and that is an awesome security measure IMHO. I 
don't
know exactly how to do that socket watch though.

P.s.: don't worry, you actually can't set issues as "enhancement" yourself 
unless you
have admin privileges I think.

i made a watch that is basically a wrapper for netstat, which will check if a
connection on a given port has been established. Still has to be added manually
through the watches.list though, since UI is still missing.

I tried the watch, but it did not work for me.

I made a connection with my computer through ssh but specto did not notify 
me...did
it work for other people?

it worked for me:
INFO - watch_port.Port_watch - Mise à jour de l'observateur: "port test"
ERROR - watch_port.Port_watch - Observateur: "port test" a causé une erreur

The error was after I logged into my workstation through ssh. Needs a bit of 
work I
guess :)

Completed (with the GUI) in SVN revision 87. Thomas, the bug I found in comment 
#5
was due to the fact that you had tab identations mixed with the 4 spaces 
indentation
we use :)

I'm marking this bug as fixed as it seems the requested functionality is there 
and
works (for me). Please test and see if it's okay.
