I have a protocol that support TFTP transfer. But the TFTP server does not listen at the TFTP standard port. Therefor I detect the TFTP request at the protocol specific UDP port and want to activate the TFTP dissector for corresponding conversation.

 

I read in the archive that I need to get the TFTP dissector handle in the reg_off function of my plugin. But find_dissector(“tftp”) returns always NULL. Do I need any magic to find the dissector?
