Hi All,

This seem like a simple request and I'm sure the answer is staring me in the
face.

How do I supply a list of data files collected by nfcapd  to processed by
nfdump?

I have tried to cat all the neccessary files together and pipe them into
nfdump as follows but also get a 'corrupt data file' message.  The
individual files are fine.

I am using a snapshot of nfdump as below but have found the same problem on
version 1.5.7.

nfdump: Version: snapshot-1.6b-20090930 $LastChangedDate: 2009-09-30

$Id: nfdump.c 31 2009-09-30 08:04:28Z haag $

I can't use multiple '-r' options and -R requires the files to be in the
same directory.  Using the -M option to specify multiple directories doesn't
help me either.  Maybe because the files have the same name but in different
directories?

I'm sure this is a user error but yet to find out how.

Cheers
Jason
