Just a brief word to let those people interested in Netwatch for the PC/IP package know that a) max packet length visible is now bumped up to 1520 bytes b) several more protocol "types" are available by name c) all the source and .LIB and .EXE files are packaged into a single new archive, as version 9.6 (up from 9.5), available on netlab.usu.edu, 129.123.1.11, in directory [anonymous.netwatch]. It's a VMS machine so do cd [.netwatch] with the brackets and the dot. Joe D.

I just pulled 9.6 executable and started the packet driver on my xt. I started netwatch and it appears to work. I see packets being displayed. However, I most often set a a filter to only capture IP packets. When I do this (T IP) it does not capture any packets (which there are lots of on the wire). I did a T and then ? just to make sure IP is still listed and it is. Is this a problem with netwatch? Could it be the packet driver -- ncsa works over this same driver. It is version 5.0. I would really like to able to run netwatch on some of my other faster machines. Appreciate any help.
