Your only option is to run Ethereal on the server running the WS (ok, or on any other host along the route, but this doesn't change a lot), but servers often do not have a graphic subsystem like X installed. I'm not saying it can't be done, but that it might be not so easy ;-)
But in these cases Apaches TCPMon is useless too ;-)
