Huntsville, AL Lines: 12 Some words got deleted the first time I posted this. (sorry). Something that I should , don't -- Is only difference between an Ethernet frame and an 802.3 frame the usage of the type/length field. I see how this causes problems. Are there any other differences that I don't know. I have a real 802.3 spec, but no Ethernet "spec", if one exists. tony "ground me but once" goodloe
