Hi,

Many thanks you for your reply.
I've already been looking into DCE 1.1: Remote Procedure Call Specifcation
(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9629399/), but what I have to do
is kind of dissection of the message - similar to the dissection
provided by Ethereal. All documentation including the specification
found on the web says how to program with RPC DCE, and what is the
model. Do you know where I can find out what does the message look
like?

Thanks in advance.
Well, reading a protocol spec is a task of it's own unless you're used to do it.
The place to start in the spec is the "RPC PDU encodings" part: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9629399/chap12.htm#tagcjh_17
You might compare real-time Ethereal output with the spec to get an idea what's going on ...
