"GET", OK, "listen", no. At least I can't in pure shell. I know there's some toolkits to do server-client things in Bash but they're *way ancient*: look for Socketd (wzk@quietsche-entchen.de) or Socket (mark@eskimo.com). For both this and the question below explaining why you need it would be cool. Verbosity may lead to us giving suggestions or solutions that better match your task or situation.

Bash has no concept of "packets" or how to "read" them.
You want to resort to using a legitimate sniffer.

Try writing a bash script that uses "tcpdump" to capture the packet(s) you want. Google for "Bash for beginners" and "Advanced bash scripting guide". Also check out "man tcpdump" and you're set to go.
