Hello List,

I'm running the following setup on a primary dns server:
tethereal -n tcp port 53
with
tcp.desegment_tcp_streams: FALSE
When I do a zone transfer, I receive very long lines and garbage
characters.
I've looked into the code a bit but it looks like I need a lot more
time to understand what is going on. Is someone willing to look into
this? Trace and log available.

 Ciao
     Jörg

I found out that "pro" means "instead of" (as in proconsul). Now I know
what proactive means.
