Hi,

I recently started using the Ethereal (great program) and was wondering about a large number of RX protocol packets that are displayed as [Malformed Packet].  It seems any computer I put the program on generates these packets.  Is this protocol generated by the Ethereal program?  Also, is there a way to get the ip address from a MAC address.  I'm running on a Windows platform so I don't have RARP.  It would be a great feature if the program could tell us this on demand. 


Thanks,

Brian Allen
