[-- Attachment #1 --] After installing winpcap and ethereal on Windows here is the output from when I did a release to when I did a renew. I had trouble viewing it with tcpdump -r, it seemed to take awhile and I gave up after a few seconds. It looks like the problem is with me not specifying myself as hes1_buf_adelphia_net. Is this the hostname option in DHCP options? The use of more info on winipcfg gave me this for the hostname of the Win95 laptop. MBA-07100.buf.adelphia.net Once I get this up and running I think I'm going to install ethereal from the ports, I looks like a great program. After redirecting the output of tcpdump -r into a seperate file and waiting a few minutes it porduced a file that looked like the one on Windows. I've attached it too.
