I am new to Ethereal having only got it going last weekend on a Win95 laptop..
 
I am using Ethereal to track NetBIOS packets on a coax LAN.
 
When I first started using Ethereal is was great because it was displaying the Source and Destination in the actual machine names, e.g. Linux, Laptop, PC3, PC4, etc. It was very easy to follow.
 
Now I am still using the very same settings, but now the Source and Destination addresses are being displayed as the actual Ethernet addresses, or the dotted quad IP addresses. This makes interpreting the display very difficult.
 
How can I get Ethereal to go back to displaying the actual machine names for Source and Address?
