Hello,

First, a word of thanks for making ethereal available!

I used it initially to print Shomiti v2.3 capture files.
More recently I have put the capture version on another PC
and they both work great!

But I did run into a problem when I tried to print a capture 
file created with Shomiti v3.1...

Problem Report:

*  PC running WinNT 4.0 (Build 1381, Service Pack 3)

*  gtk-config and ethereal -v did not produce results,
so I tried tethereal -v and got:

"tethereal 0.8.12 with GTF+ 1.3.0, with libcap 0.4.ab,
without libz, without SNMP

*  Invoked:  tethereal -x -r <path>\test31short.cap

Got:

"Message: snoop version 4 unsupported
tethereal:  The file ...\test31short.cap is not a capture
file in a format Tethereal understands."

A copy of the capture file is attached.

(Workaround:  Shomiti has internal tools to convert from
snoop to other formats. I tried Snoop to Sniffer conversion.
tethereal handled the Sniffer version. I didn't try other
conversions.)

Regards,

Mike Kerwan
