Hi,
 
I filtered the capture I did with Ethereal for retransmitted packets and got a few.  However, when I ran the same capture through tcptrace (another packet analyzer), the details showed no data packet retransmitted.  The same was observed for Out-of-Order packets.  I may get none on Ethereal but tcptrace gives a few.  Can anyone explain why there is a discrepancy?  Both Ethereal and tcptrace use WinPcap 3.1 beta 3.
 
Thanks.
