Dear Guy,

checking out a new sandbox yields in

U ethereal/packet-lpd.c
U ethereal/packet-m2pa.c
U ethereal/packet-m3ua.c
U ethereal/packet-mapi.c
U ethereal/packet-mbtcp.c
U ethereal/packet-mip.c
U ethereal/packet-mmse.c
U ethereal/packet-mount.c
U ethereal/packet-mount.h
U ethereal/packet-mpeg1.c
U ethereal/packet-mpls.c
U ethereal/packet-mrdisc.c
U ethereal/packet-mrdisc.h
U ethereal/packet-msdp.c
U ethereal/packet-msnip.c
U ethereal/packet-msnip.h
U ethereal/packet-msproxy.c
U ethereal/packet-mtp2.c
U ethereal/packet-mtp3.c
U ethereal/packet-nbipx.c

So there is no packet-m2tp.c. It is really different from the other
protocols, especially packet-mtp2.c. So it should be checked in.

Best regards
Michael

The current CVS versionf of Ethereal already has an M2TP dissector; you
might want to take a look at it, and merge in any improvements yours
has.

The current CVS version can be fetched via anonymous CVS:

	http://www.ethereal.com/development.html#anoncvs

or, if, for example, you're behind a firewall through which CVS traffic
can't pass, you can download gzipped tarballs containing nightly
snapshots of the development source tree:

	http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/nightly-builds/

Note that to built from the CVS version, you will need to have installed
on your machine:

	Perl 5.0 or later
	Python
	Flex
	Bison or Berkeley "yacc"

If you're building on a UNIX-compatible system, you'll also need:

	autoconf
	automake
	libtool

If you're building on Windows, you'll need

	Microsoft Visual C++ (6.0 works, 5.x might also work)
	various UNIX tools (available with Cygwin, although you probably
	    also want to install the version of Python for Win32 from

		http://www.python.org

	    as I think the Cygwin version has some problems)

Cygwin also comes with versions of at least some of the tools such as
Flex and Bison.
