A quick look at the netscaler documentation indicates that there's a 
netscaler program called nstrace which can produce files in something 
called "nstrace format" (and apparently also in tcpdump (pcap) format)).

I'm guessing that the "citrix netscaler capture file format" you refer 
to above is the "nstrace format" output from nstrace.

Is this correct?.
