Hi,

I've written a special trace file formatter that runs against
both Sniffer(TRSNIFF) and Ethereal(XCP) type files and I'm
having a little problem with the time calculations. In some
of the XCP files it looks like the absolute time calculation
needs to include dividing by 3.57967377666. In other of the
XCP files I don't need to do this because the time is already
in microseconds. Does anyone know what exactly in the header
I can look for to determine if I need to do that extra divide?

file: d:\cases\e667165\bad.cap - I don't need to divide. Here's
a hexdump of th eheader portion:
