Am I correct in saying that heuristic dissectors can be used with Sun/ONC
RPC programs that do not use a standard (fixed) port?

My problem is that I wish to write a dissector for 'hclnfsd' (a
pcnfsd-like daemon from Hummingbird Ltd- my employer), but aside from
using a standard RPC program number, it's port is dynamic.  I poked
through the code in 'epan/packet.c' and 'packet-udp.c' for 0.8.13, but am
a little lost as to where to "do my thing"

Can anybody shed some light?

Thanks,

Mike.
