There's nothing out of the ordinary except that it's padded with zero's. The idea that they may be (accidental) sparse files seems to be the best possible explanation. The path and the name of the file is in the trace, so I would first check with NDIR to see if they are indeed sparse files. Wow, what a blast from the past. I haven't thought about JRB Utils in YEARS. What a great collection of utilities that was.... -- Thanks, Hansang _______________________________________________ Wireshark-users mailing list Wireshark-users@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-users
