    You'd need that dissector to be registered by name (by calling
    register_dissector()) first.


Can you elaborate a bit? Who's 'that' ? my dissector or the PKCS#1?
And how do I make the PKCS#1 register? It is one of the automatically
created dissectors...

Sorry, I meant the PKCS#1 dissector (i.e., you'd have to modify the
dissector).  Looking briefly at that
dissector, I don't quite know how
register_dissector() should be called (in fact I'm not even clear what the
entry point to that dissector is!).

I think that "pkcs" is normaly called from other dissectors using OID's. If
you try to explain more explicity what you are trying to do possibly with an
example trace we may be able to help you.

I have a blob within my protocol that I is a PKCS#1  (v2.0, EME-OAEP format)
that I'd be happy to dissect.
