Hi Dave,

I don't know if the fix Gerald Combs made a few days ago would solve this crash. 
http://www.ethereal.com/lists/ethereal-cvs/200211/msg00142.html

If you (or someone else) have possibility to test with the latest version of packet-tds.c (from nightly build) we could see if the problem has already been solved or not. I don't have any debugger/compiler available today, so I cannot try it out myself.

As I said in my previous mail I noticed a crash on Win98 with Ethereal 0.9.7 but not with Ethereal 0.9.6, so maybe
the fault was introduced after 0.9.6.

Regards,
 Martin
