I don't think you are clear on what you want. If you want to "capture
all the messages" it WILL be large and cumbersome. tcpgrp+sip_scenario
is a good choice for SIP protocol analysis (or wireshark). You can for
example create smaller dump files by restarting tcpdump with a new
redirection file every hour or so to make them smaller.
ngrep can be found in the SER Getting Started everything package, very
good for simple analysis and call traces.
acc will just give you... accounting (i.e. start/stop), so that's maybe
not what you want?

Thanks for your reply,
I want to run some automated testing over a weekend or some extended
period of time. Ethereal captures tend to get quite large and
cumbersome from my experience. I wanted to get a simple interface or
use serweb to view them (if that's possible?) so that I don't have to
deal with several programs at the same time. And I thought since the
data will be stored in MySQL, I can write a simple query to display
the data if I needed to.
Thank you for your suggestion. But I would like to see if there is a
method I can do it all in SER first.
Thanks,
Ben

Why not try Wireshark (former Ethereal)? Or even the tcpdump, which
comes with most Linux distributions by default.

Hi,
I am setting up a testing environment with about 100 users. I would
like to see who is online/registered, conversation times, protocols,
etc. Basically I want to be able to capture all the messages for
troubleshooting purposes, durability, compatibility, reliability,
etc. Will the acc module do that for me, how do I set it up to
capture the data?
Thank you very much,
Ben
