Because, for some reason, the packet data it's getting is less than 14 bytes long. What version of libpcap and tcpdump is this? (Run "tcpdump -h" to get the version information.) What OS is this? (Probably Linux, given the interface name "eth0".) What version of the OS is that? (For Linux, give the kernel version.) What type of interface is eth0? Is it an Ethernet interface or some interface that the OS is saying looks like an Ethernet but that really isn't?- This is the tcpdump-workers list. Visit https://cod.sandelman.ca/ to unsubscribe.
