Hi everyone
Second try: I'd like to start a little project based on Wireshark. What
I need to be able to do though is process pcaps that include my own
protocol, which means packet sizes > 64k, preferably up to 2.1-4.3 gig.
After all, the pcap file format allows for packets this size.
Is there something like a central max_size variable which is all I need
to change to be able to open pcaps this size? I do NOT want to capture
those packets from the wire. This is just about pcaps.
Help, anyone? Otherwise the project is dead before it even started.
