Sorry... I realized I had a typo. It's mergecap 0.10.7.

Also, I'm outputting the file in ngwsniffer2_0 format.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Ed

Hi,

I have mergecap 0.10.4. I think it's the latest as I just downloaded it.

Anyone out there using mergecap to merge together trace files?

I'm trying to merge together some trace files and it's screwing
up the timestamps in the output file.

For example:

- In the output file the timestamps start @ 3:30AM then at around
frame 350 the timestamps go to 2:19:05AM. The are supposed to be
in chronological order.

- Also, all of the records timestamps are not the same in the output
file vs. what they were in the input file. I'm using the current
ethereal to view both the input and output(merged) file.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
