Hi, Based on information in your email. 1.1.1.1 is a SMB client. 2.2.2.2 is a SMB server. Client requests file open \abc.txt Server confirms that file exists and available for this user. Then Client requests 32768 bytes of file content from the start of the file. Server responds with file contents. For future, look to the port to determine where the server is. Server listening and responding on port 445 for SMB. Client will have random port. Regards, Max On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 5:46 PM, Rayne <hjazz6 () ymail com> wrote:
Hi, I have a PCAP file that contains some SMB traffic showing the file transfer from one PC to another. I'm trying to determine which is the PC that initiates the file transfer. From Wireshark, I have the following packets. NT Create Andx Request, FID: 0x4007, Path: \abc.txt (1.1.1.1:49752 -> 2.2.2.2:445) NT Create Andx Response, FID: 0x4007 (2.2.2.2:445 -> 1.1.1.1:49752) ... Read Andx Request, FID: 0x4007, 32768 bytes at offset 0 (1.1.1.1:49752 -> 2.2.2.2:445) Read Andx Response, FID: 0x4007, 32768 bytes (2.2.2.2:445 -> 1.1.1.1:49752) ... I thought 1.1.1.1 was the one that started the file transfer to 2.2.2.2, since 1.1.1.1 is the one requesting and 2.2.2.2 is the one responding. But in the Read Andx Response packet, I see the contents of the file being transferred. That confused me because if those packets are carrying the file contents, doesn't that mean 2.2.2.2 is the one transferring the file to 1.1.1.1? Thank you.
