Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] ONC-RPC packet decoding

Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2007 08:08:36 -0400

I have an application that uses ONC-RPC.  When I capture the packets, all of them, request and replies, are marked as RPC continuation data.  I can see that the complete request is in the data, but wireshark seems to be unable to decode them.  I've included several packets below.  These are all requests.  At this point, if all I get is the requests to decode properly that will be a big help.
