Martin,


I am still having issues finding anything in the hex data payload field, I
have tried the following to find "This" at offset C4 file data, highlighted
in yellow.  I really need to find values in the file data without knowing
the offset in the file data field, but in some cases I also look for
something I know the offset of.  One other solution is to print out the data
to a file and use some other program for the search, but try opening a 500MN
with MS word pad or note pad.

Filter and Find Frame  ( I also enclosed the hex values in "" to see if that
was the secret)

smb [c4:c7] == 54:68:69:73
tcp [c4:c7] == 54:68:69:73
ip [c4:c7] == 54:68:69:73
data [c4:c7] == 54:68:69:73

		You're right, there is something broken (at least in 0.9.3
on win32).
		However there is a workaround that may work for you. 
		For the bug fixers the following two examples DO match
packets correctly
		:-

		ipx[0:2] == "ff:ff"
		ipx[0:8] == "ff:ff:00:72:03:11:0a:8f"
		ipx[0] == "ff" && ipx [1] == "ff"

		But the following DON'T match

		ipx[0:] == "ff:ff"
		ipx[0:1] == "ff:ff"
		ipx[0:42] == "ff:ff"


		It seems that an open ended range or a range that doesn't
exactly match
		the number of bytes in the match string doesn't work.

		Subject: [Ethereal-users] Find Frame / Filtering


		Hi,

		I do a lot of tracing which requires searching / filtering
on the data
		stream.

		I have tried the "Find Frame" and "Filtering" options with
the following
		parameters.  

		smb[0:] == 43:00:6f:00:6d:00:6d:00:    ;I copied the hex
data stream
		from
		the hex data of a trace.
		ip[0:] == 43:00:6f:00:6d:00:6d:00:    ;I copied the hex data
stream from
		the
		hex data of a trace.
		tcp[0:] == 43:00:6f:00:6d:00:6d:00:    ;I copied the hex
data stream
		from
		the hex data of a trace.
		data[0:] == 43:00:6f:00:6d:00:6d:00:    ;I copied the hex
data stream
		from
		the hex data of a trace.

		I've have also tried to search for hex streams that were not
separated
		by the 00 hex characters as in the above example, same
results.


		Applying as a Filter displays no results and Find Frame
responds with a
		"No Packet Matched Filter" message.  

		I am guessing Ethereal dose not support this, but as it is
important to
		me I want to make sure before I abandon it for this
application.

		Thanks for any feed back.

		John
