Hi,

I think you picked them right out... the known bugs. See the release
notes.

Thanks,
Jaap

Hi all,

I use FreeBSD 8.0 64 bits. I record network traces on my network this 
way with dumpcap :

dumpcap -i bridge0 -w /store/pcap/fede/capture.pcap -b filesize:300000 
-b files:1500

Interface bridge0 is composed of em1 en em0 which are connected to a 
Network TAP. It works well and I developped a small shell script that 
select a subset of files given a time interval.

I tried to send this subset of pcap files to a named pipe like this :

cat fic1.pcap fic2.pcap ... > /my/named/pipe

With a tshark on the named pipe :

tshark -i /my/named/pipe -w /store/pcap/dns.pcap 'dst port 53'

With a "filter capture" to get only DNS traffic in dns.pcap
And when I re read this pcap like this :

tshark -r /store/pcap/dns.pcap

I got all the traffic (not only dns). I also tried with a "read filter"
:

tshark -i /my/named/pipe -w /store/pcap/dns.pcap -R "udp.port==53"

It is all the same in the resulting pcap. Did I missed something about 
filter ?

Thanks for your help,
