You need much more under MS-DOS, before you reach ethereal - only
looking at the equivalent of libpcap in the MS world (WINpcap), for
example, and makes me think it may not be possible. Check that level,
first (http://winpcap.polito.it).


libpcap for DOS is the least of the problems. This has already been
done some years ago. Ref: http://www.bgnett.no/~giva/pcap/

The major problem would be to port Glib and GTK+ to MS-DOS.
Near impossible AFAICS.
