If you are lucky, the server password may be somewhere in all the noise. The target server must be directly connected to the server that the script is running on. Using multiple threads speeds up the capture process. **Signature:** ```typescript packetCapture(host: string): Promise; ``` ## Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
host	string	Hostname/IP of the server to listen to.

**Returns:** Promise<[DarknetResult](./bitburner.darknetresult.md) & { data: string }> A promise that resolves to a [DarknetResult](./bitburner.darknetresult.md) object, plus the captured data. ## Remarks RAM cost: 6 GB
