The problem still exists on AIX.  tcpdump works, but returns the packet information after a long delay (10-30 seconds).

  (sleep 2;nslookup www.yahoo.com) & ; tcpdump -l -c 1 udp port 53

Whereas

	(sleep 2; nslookup www.yahoo.com) & tethereal -l -c 1 udp port 53

(I assume the semicolon was a typo) doesn't work?

What do

	tcpdump -h

and

	tethereal -v

report?
