  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>
