Hello,
Here is a patch to ethereal 0.10.14 that will cause
individual operations in NFS v4 compound messages to be
displayed in both the top and middle windows in ethereal.
On NFS V4 calls, top window will show every operation but the PUTFH op,
since that will be part of (almost every) compound message.
On NFS V4 replies, the top window will show every operation and their
status iff the status is non-zero. Also, non-zero statues on PUTFH
replies will also be shown even though they were not shown on
the call line.
In the second (or tree) window, on the first line of the NFS tree,
the total number of operations in the compound message will be
shown, as well as, all the operations, including PUTFHs.
With replies, the same will be shown as well as the status of
each operation, regardless of it value.
If anybody interested in trying this attached patch out,
I have the an x86 rpm and the source rpm in
http://people.redhat.com/steved/ethereal

I am not member of the ethereal-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxx mailing list....
