Or just use Ethereal[1] or a similar network sniffer program.  That's
what I currently use and the main reason I have not bothered with
conns() calls for any recent code.  They are not completely free for
those that don't try to turn on this debugging either, so I would
prefer to leave it like this.  A doc patch will be welcomed.
