> 1- Can server watch or store or read messages of those two clients.
It depends on how the server and clients connect to the network. See the FAQ
4.1
http://www.ethereal.com/faq.html
> 2- Is there any utility available in the world that can read messages of
two clients.
A machine running Ethereal can be configured to capture NET SEND messages.
You will need to apply suitable capture and display filters to get what you
want though.
See http://www.ethereal.com/tcpdump.8.html for tcpdump's capture filter
syntax (we NT users can't just type "man tcpdump"). See your local
"c:\program files\ethereal\ethereal.html" for display filter syntax.
> 3- What type of Services are used while messaging i.e., TCP/IP, UDP,ICMP
or anyother.
Have you tried doing this? What did you see?
> 4- What is the exact port number used for this purposes.
See above.
I could suggest a cature and display filter, but I get the feeling I'd be
answering a comp sci assignment question.
