Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] text2pcap problems on windows

[Douglas McBride <Douglas.McBride@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have used text2pcap 1000's of times on
freebsd, but recently tried it windows.  It doesn't seem to work correctly,
it truncates all packets to 15 bytes.


C:\Program Files\Wireshark>text2pcap.exe -t %M:%S
c:\winv6.txt ipv6
Input from: c:\winv6.txt
Output to: ipv6
Wrote packet of 15 bytes at 0
Wrote packet of 15 bytes at 15
.
.
.
Wrote packet of 15 bytes at 525
Wrote packet of 15 bytes at 540
Read 37 potential packets, wrote 37 packets

All of the packets are bigger than 15 bytes and I
successfully had text2pcap parse this file on freebsd.  I also tried
using the -m option and specifying a size larger than 15 but it didn't
change anything.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Doug M
