Hey Peter,
If you can just grab the records with "ra -r pobox.netflow -w test.out  
- host 71.90.234.102 and port 1254"
that should get me the data I need to see if I get the same behavior.

This should give you the same results?
    "ra -r pobox.netflow -w - - host 71.90.234.102 and port 1254 |  
racluster -f racluster.conf"
