Ethereal-users: RE: [Ethereal-users] How to capture the NetBIOS data over 802.2 network
But the problem here is that even if I increase the snapshot size, tcpdump
still giving me the header only of the NetBIOS.
In other words, tcpdump showing me exactly this:
(15:12:21.446893 NetBeui Packet),
while I want to read the data inside the NetBeui Packet as Ethereal doing
it.
So anyone can give me an idea of how can read the data inside the NetBEUI
packet?

By default tcpdump uses a snapshot length of 68 bytes, I think.
You can set another snapshot len with the -s option.
With the recent versions it is possible to use 0 as snapshot length (-s 0)
to capture
the complete packets, but you can try with e.g. "-s 65635" if that is not
working.
