Hello

SunOS 5.6 ethereal v 0.8.7 , with GTK+ 1.2.3, with libpcap 0.4, without
libz, without SNMP

displaying tcpdump data captured on Sun 5.7 using the pf0 (fddi)
interface

The src or dest MAC address is being incorrectly displayed e.g.

actual MAC 08:00:02:04:89:ed appears as 10:00:40:20:91:b7

this is also true for data captured with Solaris snoop.

I attach an example trace used with snoop (just 2 packets so it is nice
and small but makes the point).

Minor bug as the MAC is there in the packet display but thought you
might want the feedback. Ethereal is great!! many thanks

Neil
