Hello,
   I am running ethereal on linux on pcs with pc1 with
ip address=192.18.1.250 and pc2 with ip=192.168.1.10.
I am pinging from pc1 to p2 but sometimes packet goes
normal way and sometimes i think frame corrupted.
Following my capture analysis ON PC2. First Frame is
corrupted why? frame5 correctly received.
   what is the reason i am not able to receive frame
correctly sometimes?
        Does following packet makes entry in ifconfig
anyalysis. I check but no counter increased on PC2.
neither packet counted as RX packets nor dropped why?
