It lets you debug TCP applications. Say, if you want to watch your mail being sent, run it like this:
tcpconndbg mailhost 25
(Replace mailhost with your SMTP server).
Now go into your mailer and change the SMTP server to localhost and the port to 8025, and try sending something. You should see the whole SMTP session in the window running tcpconndbg.
