Hello,

Ethereal displays ethernet packets excluding the CRC sent down the wire, and
displays the Packet Length excluding the CRC.

Packet 7 in the attached file is displayed as having an "Ethernet II Frame
check sequence error 0x2b5d86f7 (incorrect, should be 0x30b6f865)"

Looking at the raw data in the bottom window, It appears as if Ethereal has
compared the calculated CRC with the last 4 data bytes in the packet
rather than with the actual CRC sent down the wire.

Any comments please.

Thanks,

Lee
