    Hi All,

    Is "tcptrace" program able to compute retransmitted Acks or SYNs ?
    I saw a lot of repeated Acks in my tcpdump file, as follow:

    tcpdump -S -vv -n -tt -r sample.dump
    982027803.524630 22.22.22.2.80 > 33.33.33.194.1094: . 1439553657:1439554169(512) ack 7885497 win 16384 (ttl 58, id 6768)
    982027803.529734 33.33.33.194.1094 > 22.22.22.2.80: . 7885497:7885497(0) ack 1439554681 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 122, id 42242)
    982027803.542848 33.33.33.194.1094 > 22.22.22.2.80: . 7885497:7885497(0) ack 1439555705 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 122, id 42498)
    982027803.556465 33.33.33.194.1094 > 22.22.22.2.80: . 7885497:7885497(0) ack 1439556596 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 122, id 42754)
    982027803.647738 33.33.33.194.1094 > 22.22.22.2.80: . 7885497:7885497(0) ack 1439556596 win 32120 (DF) (ttl 122, id 43522)
    982027818.964909 22.22.22.2.80 > 33.33.33.194.1094: F 1439556596:1439556596(0) ack 7885497 win 16384 (ttl 58, id 6948)

    But these Acks are not computed in "tcptrace -l" ... :-(
    How can I known the amount of repeated Acks , using tcptrace ?
    Should the repeated Acks or Syns be considered as retransmitted packets ? Or not ?

    Regars,
    Claus
