Hi all,

I have Ethereal 0.10.3 on linux, and I want to decode conversations from
UDP port 7007 to UDP port 7007 as RUDP + SM + MTP3.
RUDP is currently an ethereal plugin, which by defalut binds RUDP to UDP
port 7000.
On this default port (7000), everything goes fine, the traffic is
correctly interpretted as: IP/UDP/RUDP/SM/MTP3/....
If I try "Decode As" menu, and specify that on port UDP 7007 (both) to
be RUDP, a strange thing happens:
The packets are dissected as RUDP, but it does not pass the remaing data
to Cisco SM and after that to MTP3.
I don't know why is this behaviour.

For a quick hack I changed the default port from 7000 to 7007 and
recompiled ethereal. But this is just a quick hack not a fix.
