Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Urgent dissector problem

[Martin Angler <martin.angler@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am a student of CS and currently developing a pseudo-network driver under 
GNU/Debian linux which should be able to accept BACnet MS/TP packets (is a 
data link layer protocol).

Now the problem is the following: In order to test my driver, I am using a 
dissector which other people (former German students) have written 2 or 3 
years ago. They never really tested it, because they were missing a libpcap 
linktype for that special protocol. Now, on June 8, 2004 Guy Harris from 
tcpdump.org has added such a linktype.

I followed the instructions to add the dissector to Ethereal 0.10.3 from 
README.developer, i.e. I added the .c file to the Makefile.common in 
<EtherealDIR>/epan/. But that didn't work. MAKE complaint, there were 
undefined references when linking. Then I hacked around in the Makefile and 
Makefile.in, and finally it produced the wanted code.

But, when I try to start Ethereal now, all there comes, is a "Segmentation 
fault". Could you please help me there?

Regards,
Martin W. Angler
