Hey all,

I've got this telnet packet that makes ethereal (and tethereal) hang when trying to decode it.  Thanks to editcap, I was able to show that it is this packet and only this packet that is creating the problem (attached).

Thoughts?
 
Here is what tcpdump thinks of it (rather long):

[root@dnps-linux1 tmp]# tcpdump -SnvvvxX -r thatfile3

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
