"trc format" is just libpcap format. > In some instance i see the following: > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/work % /local/wireshark/bin/tshark -r vif1.trc -z > 'ip_hosts,tree' -q > tshark: "vif1.trc" appears to have been cut short in the middle of a packet. Did you stop the trace on the filer before reading the file? If not, that isn't guaranteed to work - there might be data in memory on the file that hasn't yet been written out to the file. That could cause this problem. > I have not copied the trc file from one OS to another. Is there a way i > can have wireshark ignore such packets when it reads the trc file? That message is printed for the last packet in the file; Wireshark/TShark already ignores it when it sees that problem. It doesn't ignore it *silently*, because it's not supposed to. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-users mailing list Wireshark-users@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-users
