35	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
36
37	<para>ndrdump tries to parse the specified <replaceable>filename</replaceable>
38		using Samba's parser for the specified pipe and function. The 
39		third argument should be 
40		either <emphasis>in</emphasis> or <emphasis>out</emphasis>, depending 
41		on whether the data should be parsed as a request or a reply.</para>
42
43	<para>Running ndrdump without arguments will list the pipes for which 
44		parsers are available.</para>
45
46	<para>Running ndrdump with one argument will list the functions that 
47		Samba can parse for the specified pipe.</para>
48
49	<para>The primary function of ndrdump is debugging Samba's internal 
50		DCE/RPC parsing functions. The file being parsed is usually 
51		one exported by wiresharks <quote>Export selected packet bytes</quote> 
52		function.</para>
53
54	<para>The context argument can be used to load context data from the request 
55		packet when parsing reply packets (such as array lengths).</para>
