5. flowdump

flowdump can read raw flow files or connect to cflowdmux and select flows using a simple (and inefficient) filter language. It will check the file to be opened (form the command line); if it's a socket, it assumes we're connecting to cflowdmux, else it assumes we're reading a raw flow file from disk. The only real difference here is that in the case of a named socket, we'll need to connect() before reading flows.
