Hi list,

Does anybody succeed in reading libpcap files with [t]ethereal built on
cygwin? I always get errors like a packet size of 4229955592 (0xFC200008)
and only one single packet being displayed as LLC.
If I compare what is being read with the CygWin Ethereal and the Win32
Ethereal, then I observe that there is a 4-byte offset (cygwin starts the
packet 4 bytes later than Win32).

I compile with the WinPCAP 3 header files and libraries.

Regards,

Olivier
