Cool! I've been meaning to do this for quite some time. HOWEVER, please

yes, you are welcome to use those files under the tcpdump copyright.
..snip..
Note that the Tcpdump patches from www.samba.org are under the GPL.
Andrew Tridgell also warned:
I should warn you though that there are some security issues with my
tcpdump-smb patches. It is possible for a malicious user to put
packets on the wire that will cause a buffer overflow in the SMB
parser in that code. That could lead to a root exploit.
I just haven't got around to fixing it yet.
