(It's reasonable also that both ends of the handshake will differ only slightly, as the two tails do.) > Secondly, consider the 0xff terminator -- does this give us any help on what proto it may be using? Can we compare that at all with the 0xf3 preamble? Is that even a preamble? Can we presume this is both sides of the communication, or that it's just one end? (The source is not specific -- 'tapped off an unprotected modem connection' may mean full or half duplex.) I got the impression from my *source* that this was just a single message, like it deciphers to a nice quote or something in the same way as every other crypto challenge. (I just made the quote thing up, though.) -- Jay Miller ICQ: 32123421 | YM: ladenedge | http://www.cryptofreak.org PGP: 0xedc9bb8d | 41a6428c 46abd36b 6b259b68 8a28ca4c edc9bb8c -- This is the mod-chal mailing list.
