Doing software from scratch will cost you more than the Sniffer and you
still won't have a PC to run on.  If you want cheap and you have a PC
with an ethernet board, you might want to contact FTP Software, Inc.  They
have a glorified version of MIT's Netwatch available for around $1000.00.
You can call them at (617) 246-0900.  Personally I prefer the Sniffer.
Educational institutions can qualify for a 40% discount on the Sniffer
and asociated software.  Excelan has packages that range from $5200 to
$15755 so you can select your price range (1-800-392-3526).  Good luck.
