I have been continuing the process of analysis by using a latest version of wireshark. I just now verified with Version 1.2.5 (SVN Rev 31296) on Windows OS, it seems to display the 'TCP options' field properly. But, I wonder why the 0.99.0 version (linux) does not display it. Just as you have conveyed that it is displaying for 0.99.6(Linux) version, i too think that it should work for 0.99.0 version also.
Perhaps there was a bug in 0.99.0 that caused it not to display the TCP options correctly for your particular trace? (The code to display TCP options has been in Ethereal/Wireshark for a long time, so it's not that 0.99.0 can't display TCP options. There might be *particular* TCP options that it doesn't know about, but it should at least be able to display them as raw data.) The current version of Wireshark on *ALL* platforms is 1.2.6; 0.99.0 - and even 0.99.6! - are very old (0.99.0 dates back at least 3 years - it's so old that it wasn't even called "Wireshark" then, it was still "Ethereal"). ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-users mailing list <wireshark-users () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-users Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-users mailto:wireshark-users-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
