Hi.

I am having some troubles with displaying an AIX 4.3.3 'tcpdump' format fddi
capture in Ethereal. Although Ethereal can read the captures, the data does
not get displayed correctly, and gets interpreted as 'void frame'. I am not
sure if this is because the 'AIX-tcpdump' file-format is different from the
'standard-tcpdump' file-format, or if Ethereal is just not able to interpret
tcpdump FDDI captures correctly yet.

If anyone on the list has the time to look into the matter, I've attached
two files here that might be helpful:

- aix433-tcpdump-fddi.trace
Which is the binary format FDDI tracefile generated by AIX tcpdump.

- aix433-tcpdump-fddi.txt
Which is the ASCII formatted interpretation of the tracefile, as it was
interpreted by the AIX "tcpdump -r" command.


If additional information is needed, please don't hesitate to ask.



Sincerely,

J.Smith.
