Monotori,
I am assuming that your attached diff file would involve recompiling the
program. Unfortunately I am not a developer, and do not have the tools
and skills for this. I just use the Windows binaries. Hopefully this
patch will be incorporated in a new release in the near future.
As far as the Flowset count, I was assuming that the two template
definitions would be 1/4 and 2/4, and the two data flowsets would be 3/4
and 4/4. No?
Thanks!
Paul Sellnow

I reviewed the current code. As you pointed out, the code assumes
Template FlowSet contains only one Template Record, which is not
necessarily true. Please find attached the patch to fix it.
I also noticed that the capture file you sent me says Flowset Count is
4 but only 3 flowsets are actually present in the PDU. I guess it is
an exporter's (Cisco's) bug.
