Hmm... no one seems to be able to (or wants to) address this question

can't help directly either...

I'd use tcpdump from one of my Linux machines to do this - not the PM.
Just setup your own client PC doing whatever you want (Pointcast for
example) and then look for traffic to/from that PC's IP.

Later.
