Hello,
	I am working on a dissector that has several other sub dissectors
that it calls that I have written.  I am having trouble figuring out a way
to have my main dissector be called when ethereal performs its capture.
The problem that I have is that the messages that I am dissecting are coming
across multicast on different UDP ports and I am not sure how to associate
more than one port with my dissector or a multicast address. (To complicate
the matter those ports are also dynamic and are based upon a run time
configuration.)  Does anyone have any suggestions how I should handle this?
It is getting tedious to have to choose the individual UDP messages on
certain ports and force ethereal to dissect them.

Thanks,
	Ryan Haynes
