Re: [Wireshark-commits] rev 49410: /trunk/asn1/ /trunk/asn1/: CMakeLists.txt Makefile.am Joerg Mayer (May 20)
Why did you revert this? This will not replace epan/packet-kerberos.[hc]
unless someone type make in asn1/ or asn1/kerberos/ *and* commits the
changes files epan/dissectors/. With this change it is just easier for
the people who work on this or would like to test the changes on some
of their data in their private repo.

Re: Wireshark 1.6.7 Memory Corruption Jaap Keuter (May 20)
Hi,

This seems to be bug 7744, for which a fix was created for the 1.8
branch upwards.
I'm currently not able to say why, but this fix seems not backported
to the 1.6 branch AFAIKT.

Thanks,
Jaap

make-services.pl won't update the services file if its modification time
is more recent than IANA's version (which was the case here). I'll try
another run.

Okay, I just saw the commits. The other branches don't seem to have gotten
an updated services file though?

Re: [Wireshark-commits] rev 49425: /trunk/ /trunk/: manuf services Gerald Combs (May 20)
I mananged to introduce a bug after adding updates for usb.c. It's
hopefully fixed now.

Gerald, is the server responsible for this having problems?

Re: COTP dissector problems mmann78 (May 19)
#3 appears to be bug 7393 (https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7393) in bugzilla. If you feel the
others are bugs (or enhancements), add them to bugzilla (https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/) so the issues don't get
lost. Of course, patches with fixes for those bugs/enhancements are welcome too ;)

COTP dissector problems Daniele Pala (May 19)
Hello, I've written a simple RFC 1006 implementation (
https://github.com/danielePala/tosi) and used Wireshark to monitor the
generated traffic. I'm seeing some problems, I attach a capture file to
illustrate them, generated by the test cases of my implementation:

1. A lot of packets are marked as malformed, with reference to the T.125
protocol (which I never intended to implement). See, for example, packet
number 4 of the capture...

i got to know that the implementation has already been done in linux but we
have to devise a UI via wireshark for the same

Besides For *Windows*:
honeevent can also be implemented using winpcap
though using netshdump (which works via ETW, a good realtime support)works
great to create a log file...

Oops, yeah, that's a good point. But, you're also right that it
certainly won't hurt.

I don't think this one was necessary in 1.8, since it doesn't have Jakub's
work on shrinking the ep scope that I remember, but it won't hurt.
