Yes.

Fix the bug that's causing it not to realize that the write is to a pipe
over which DCE RPC stuff is being done. :-)

See the "is this part of DCERPC over SMB reassembly?" code in
"dissect_write_andx_request()"; it appears that the hash table lookup in
the "si->ct->dcerpc_fid_to_frame" table isn't finding anything.

I *suspect* the problem is that it's expecting the first part of a DCE
RPC-over-SMB call to be in an Transaction SMB; however, in this case we
have:

	frame 3 - Transaction SMB request from .80 to .71, containing
	    the Bind

	frame 4 - Transaction SMB reply from .71 to .80, containing the
	    Bind_ack

	frame 5 - Write andX request from .80 to .71, presumably
	    containing an AUTH3 or something such as that, *NOT* a
	    continuation of the Bind or the Bind_ack

	Frame 6 - Write andX from .71 to .80, replying to that write

	Frame 7 - Transaction SMB request from .80 to .71, containing a
	    GetDomainPasswordInfo request

	Frame 8 - Transaction SMB reply from .71 to .80, containing a
	    GetDomainPasswordInfo reply

and so on, so the write isn't a continuation of a Transaction operation.
Perhaps once we identify a FID as referring to a pipe over which DCE RPC
stuff is being done, we need to treat *everything* written to that pipe
as pipe stuff.
