That is correct. There is no facility to "sniff" the USB packets
going in and out of the different USB busses in our computers. The
USB stack is open-sourced, so you can look at the sources. USB
Prober with its USB log facilities gives you some indication on
what's going on. But, if you want to know what's on the bus, you
need a USB Bus analyzer.

I have searched the archives and read Apple's QA1370, but haven't
found any software that will allow me to capture a packet trace of
the data in the USB packets going into and out of my computer. The
QA lists four companies that have hardware devices and associated
software (that only runs on a PC). Is is not possible to capture
the data as a "sniffer", is there software out there to do it? Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
