Ok.  That makes sense.

The trace is attached.

The problem starts at packet 103.  With the "Reassemble DCERPC over SMB"
option disabled, the frame is shown as a LookupRIDs request (although it
reports as a short frame).  If "Reassemble DCERPC over SMB" is enabled,
it is only shown as a DCE Request.

Any feedback you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
