FYI, he sent me the file.

This was caused by a bug in the SMB dissector, in dissect_transact2_smb().
I might
have a go at tvbuffifying that beast.

you are right. i tried it again on the original capture and it doesn't work.
i think the pb went away because i unchecked the option "capture packets in
promiscuous mode". this must have removed the bad packet causing the pb that
you are talking about.

i attached a zip file with the capture file causing the pb.

let me know.

thanks

No, that makes no sense. Was it the same capture file?
If so, then yes, I would like to see the file. You can send it to me
privately if you
wish. If not, then you need to find another file that produces
this crash.

since i sent the email, i tried to enter the filter as, sip || sdp, and it's
working fine.

does it make sense?

i can send you the capture file if you want. no i have not found the error
log.

let me know if you still want the capture file

thanks for your quick response

That particular display filter doesn't cause my copy of Ethereal on W2k to
crash,
so I suppose that you have a packet that is triggering a bug in a protocol
dissector. If that file doesn't have sensitive information, can you send me
a copy of it so I can reproduce it?

Or, did you find the error log that was supposedly created?

i am using version 0.8.17 on W2K

when i load a capture file and enter a filter (sip or sdp) at the bottom,
the program crashes.

Message i get in a dialog box:

"ethereal.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows
you will need to restart the program
an error log is being created"

any suggestions ???

thanks
