hey, thanks for the encouragement :P If you thought the last one rocked, I think you're going to enjoy this new one 'very' much!

I was not aware of Cisco Bridged LANs showing up incorrectly... thus it is not fixed in the current release. And yes, I'd like to get it working. :) Send me Ethereal's dumps. Lets see how the best packet capture utility in the world handles this!

Thanks,

-Peter
