Remote Host

• Allow to run tcpdump without entering password, by sudo visudo:

username ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/tcpdump

Local Host

• Generate a new keypair you run the following command:

ssh-keygen -t rsa

• Copyping the public RSA to the remote host to login without entering password:

ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user_name@remote_host_ip

• Run tcpdump over ssh on your remote machine and redirect the packets to the named pipe:

wireshark -k -i <( ssh user_name@remote_host_ip sudo tcpdump -s 0 -U -n -w - -i eth0 port 53 )

• Test by performing ping google.com on the remote machine, you will see the DNS packets in remote machine's Wireshark.
