You do not have "all the details" with ethereal. That's because you are *telling* tcpdump not to sniff them. You are instructing it to take just the headers with the '-s' switch (zero payload: -s0). Try 1500 instead of 0 and you will get what you desire. -- Peter --- bannour souha <sou_bann@yahoo.fr> wrote: > > Hello, > > I am working on PPPoE.
