Thanks Ronnie, 
 
tcp_dissect_pdus() is perfect and saved me a lot of time. 
 
I used the implementation of gryphon to see how it works. 
It would be a good idea to mention that in the developer-guide.

or use tcp_dissect_pdus() which will do that for you.

  Hello
     
     
I have read the chapter about packet reassembling.
     
It's clear except from one point.
     
     
If a server has multiple TCP connections to different clients,
     
the captured packets can be mixed up from different messages.
     
How is this kept in mind?
     
Is this tracked automagically by "fragment_add_seq_check" with the
     
contents of the "packet_info" structure,
     
or is the example in the docs not taking this into account?
     
Is one instance of the "msg_fragment_table" and "msg_reassembled_table
     
enough" for multiple connections?
     
Or do I need one for each connection?
     
     
I see at least a problem with the sequence numbers.
     
At least my protocol has no sequence number for different chunks,
     
so I have to do something like "connection[i].seq_number++" for each
     
connection.
     
Are there any recommendations?
