Carter,

I am running the most recent versions of both argus and ra.

I am not using an /etc/argus.conf file.

Here's what I'm running:

sudo /usr/local/sbin/argus -XJZ -P 1776

Here's my output:

$ ra -S 127.0.0.1:1776 -s stime dur sintpkt dintpkt spkts dpkts

         StartTime        Dur      SIntPkt      DIntPkt  SrcPkts  DstPkts
