Sorry my mistake: pcap files are read by nfcapd, not nfdump. So you'd need to do:

    nfcapd -f file.pcap  ....

nfdump reads nfdump-format data files, which are *written* by nfcapd.

Now, you're saying it's not nfcapd that crashes, but nfdump. This could mean one of two things:

1. The problematic netflow data is causing nfcapd to write out an invalid nfdump-format file (which in turn causes nfdump to crash); or

2. nfcapd is writing out a valid nfdump-format file, but nfdump crashes on that specific flow

I'm afraid you'll need to do some C debugging to find out which of these cases it is.

Brian.
