Ethereal is probably the most well known and supported on many platforms (including OSX). MacSniffer will also work. Sorry don't have url's, but ethereal is available through fink and you should be able to find MacSniffer without any problems (Tucows?).

Yes. Thanks.
I have a wierd problem with my firewall and natd setup.
In short: I have a local network. My server runs natd to let the local clients get out to the internet. When a browser on the local net sends a form request for either http or https that causes the server to send out a fragment, the transaction fails.
One workaround is to reduce the client's MTU which prevents the server from fragmenting. I don't understand why the server fragments in the first place since both MTU's are originally set at 1500. But given that fragments are allowed, I'd like to figure out how to set up ipfw and natd so that fragments work properly.
