Here are the steps to get the "Save As Novell LANalyzer" bug.

1) load an xxx.tr1 File
2) Save as Novell LANalyzer (see etherealbug.jpg)
3) Enter filename and press ok (see savebug.jpg)

The savebug.jpg message now was different to the first error-msg.

I am using ethereal and the Novell LANalyzer for Windows.

And now I try to save the capturefile in "Novell LANalyzer" format.
This caused an error-msg on my system.


What was the error message?  And how were you even able to *try* to save
it in that format?  The "Save As..." dialog box shouldn't have offered
that choice.

I am using linux SuSE 8.0 with ethereal  0.9.4.
On some other systems the option to save as "Novell LANalyzer" does not exists?


On no system does the option to save in LANalyzer format exist; there is
no code in Ethereal to write that format.

Is this format only used for reading packages?


Yes.


Can't someone from netware programming this nice feature ?
