Hello,

Is it possible to use tethereal to explain the following?

03/18/2005 14:25:01.736	Malformed IP packet dropped.	0.0.0.0, LAN
0.0.0.0

My Sonicwall is logging these messages about once a minute.

I've man'ed tethereal and ethereal-filter and looked through some online
docs but I'm not even sure what to look for.

I've just started using ethereal and so far I've tried:

$/usr/sbin/tethereal -R "ip.addr eq 10.10.10.1"

	** and **

$/usr/sbin/tethereal -R "ip.addr eq 0.0.0.0"

They both only output the following:
Capturing on eth0

And then that's it.


Any help appreciated, thanks.
