  Hi Carter,

Thank you for your reply. I'm using version argus version 3.0.2 on Mac 
OS X Snow Leopard (64 bit).
I'll email you the file privately.

Thanks,
Sunjeet

The only thing that is different about this trace is that this trace shows a Distributed DOS attack on a particular host and contains TCP packets only related to that host. The size of the trace file is 4.6 MB only, compared to other huge files that I've successfully argus'ed.
