Packets 2418-2419 in the original file are the ones apparently causing the
problem. (I've attached a file with just those two packets).

Note that certain tcp preferences must be set as follows:

  <Validate TCP checksum if possible>             Off
  <Allow subdissector to reassemble TCP streams>  On 

I note that the tshark & wireshark behavior when reading this file are a bit
different on Windows and Linux.

==== Windows:

 -->tshark -V -r ...

   <snip>
               mechToken: 608208D706092A864886F71201025801005F8208C6308208...
               krb5_blob: 608208D706092A864886F71201025801005F8208C6308208...
               KRB5 OID: 1.2.840.113554.1.2.88 (iso.2.840.113554.1.2.88)
               krb5_tok_id: KRB5_AP_REQ (0x0001)
   [Malformed Packet: SMB]
   [Dissector bug, protocol NBSS: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION: dissector accessed
an invalid memory address]


 -->wireshark -r ...
  <crash>

  Interestingly enough the following works *without* a wireshark crash
  1. Start wireshark
  2. set tcp preference <validate TCP checksum ...> to On.
  3. open the file ...
  4. set tcp preference <validate TCP checksum ...> to Off.

     Wireshark does not crash but then shows "[Dissector bug ..." in the 
     details for the second packet.

=====  Linux

   Both tshark & wireshark segment fault when reading the file. 
   The trick of having wireshark read
   the file before setting the <tcp validate checksum ...> preference to Off
   doesn't seem to work.


So: my conclusion:

1. packet-nbns has a problem re-assembling the two packets (one or both of
which
   presumably have invalid [fuzz'ed] data).

2. The exception chandling ode (TRY ... ENDTRY) seems to have a problem
   on Windows wireshark (at least for the case of initially reading and 
   decoding a file).

   Should the access violation also be trapped on Linux ??
