is there already a wrapper in your toolbox to feed the msglog to text2pcap, using the proper directives per packet and collecting all packets in one pcap file?

No, there is not. If I remember correctly, the idea was to have the directives more or less ready for text2pcap so that it could do the processing when it creates the pcap file. As you probably noticed from text2pcap documentation, line starting with '#TEXT2PCAP' is a special directive but it looks like it does nothing yet (and currently Radiator adds ##TEXT2PCAP).

The only, slightly, related thing in goodies is hexdump2wireshark.pl which creates similar output from Trace 5 messages dumps.

In case someone wants to try this now, running text2pcap against the file with one set of command line options does create a valid pcap file. However, the ports and IPs are all the same, so the direction needs to be deduced from the message contents.

Please let us know how it goes if you decide to do a script,Hi Heikki,

yes, I'll do, but before, please inspect the following patches:

1.) Please add a dot as delimiter between seconds and microseconds, then text2pcap can parse the timestamp with the option flag '-t %s.'

2.) and if we already patch and change the output format, we should also trim the directive line to meet promised text2pcap enhancements:
