Hi,

This message was originally posted on the OpenH323 mailing list - but since the packets
are decoded with Ethereal (0.9.7 and previous versions) I might get some knowledge from
some of you...

I have just started using OpenH323 and noticed that "Ethereal" with "H.323 plugin"
not could reassemble a fragmented Q.931 SETUP frame (see attached log).
This applies to (at least) callgen323 and openphone.
The replies from the (remote) GK seems correct.

After some debugging in Ethereal I realized that it showed IP & TCP checksum errors
for these fragmented TPKT frames - and Ethereal refuses to desegment packets with such errors. 
I also noticed IP-checksum errors for "H.225 RAS" frames (but UDP checksum ok).
*** Why can't Ethereal hightlight errors in the summary view? It could have saved me some valuable time ;-)

Fortunately I just discovered that TCP-checksum validation can be turned off in Ethereal - and then
desegmentation seems to work...
But either Bill@xxxxxxxxxxx or OpenH323 seems to have a TCP-checksum problem ;-)

*** Does anybody have any comment on this?

I'm currently using the latest versions, i.e:
ethereal 0.9.7 (I recompiled the H.323 plugin - but also tried with prebuild configurations - e.g. 0.9.6)
