Matt,
A fine general purpose sniffer is the free utility "tcpflow" (http://www.circlemud.org/~jelson/software/tcpflow/) which breaks the flow of packets into human-readable form. I've found it invaluable for deciphering numerous back-and-forth exchanges. An HTML version of the manpage can be found at http://www.circlemud.org/~jelson/softwar...low.1.html.
This tutorial http://www.owlriver.com/tips/tcpflow-tutorial/ might be helpful to get you started.
