RE: Comm Trace

[Dawn May <dmmay@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Try using the Trace Connection (TRCCNN) command.  This trace captures data
at either the sockets or the IP layers rather than off the communications
line.  The resulting output is quite similar to that of a communications
trace.  Also, TRCCNN can be used to collect comm-trace-like information for
links that don't support communications trace (e.g, TCP/IP over twinax or
Opticonnect).

Heh...  I've done that too.  Spend an hour once trying to figure out why
all my SSL data keeps showing up as garbage in communication traces.
Tried different programs.   Even wrote a quick program of my own... Just
couldn't figure it out.

Finally, I smacked myself on the forehead and said "BECAUSE IT'S
ENCRYPTED"
