How do you identify runt packets and their source?  My two interfaces that
are connected to switch ports at 100 full with no collisions are getting
high runt counts on the switch and tools like se-toolkit from SUN tell me I
have problems with either cable, cards, or other.  I would like to know how
to idenify the runt packets and their source, but I am unsure how to do that
with ethereal.  Can it be done?
