Re: Things Happening In The Same Timestamp

   Hi,

I have Zone Alarm (free version) on both server and client. All settings are ok.

On server, the network card is D-Link DFE-538TX 10/100 adapter and appeared to be in the latest driver version for this particular model. It is connected to ADSL modem. 

On client, USB port.

If the captures were captured twice, I should be seeing 'double packets' from the same source/direction with different timestamps?    

Please take a look at my sample capture here:

www.darikawan.com

at the bottom left corner Download Here section. I hope this is acceptable to ethereal community? I cannot put the sample in the server because this is a private server.

Thanks.

Some people has seen interaction between for example blackice and winpcap  causing the captures to be captured "twice" for some mysterious reason.

Thanks for your tip. I will look into my hardware versions and firewall setting. 

Could it be possible that the problem come from the 'internet cloud' between my server and client? 

 Do you have the thread of the earlier discussion on this or the topic (I can search ethereal archive)?

Thanks.

This was discussed at length some time back. It might help if you said
what hardware you are using.

You are almost certainly seeing an interaction between parts of the 
network stack causing packets to go past the point where winpcap
collects them twice.

Check you have the latest version of the driver for your network card.
That fixed it for me. (ThinkPad T40, Intel PRO/1000  MT)

It may also be caused by Windows firewall/connection sharing. Fiddling
wiht that fixed it for some others.
