What I meant was checking online references, I don't recall if I just
clicked the help button on the port settings page, or searched the
online information. Somewhere I read that the default control card is
"l", and I tried entering that in the "additional window"--no effect.

I will run ipformat on my iptrace.dmp file, as Peter pointed out I
should do. I had been just looking at the output in the command window.
