Yes, that's the one I was looking for. Thanks everyone for the replies.

I was wrong about the source of the information. It's referenced in a

Network Security Hacks 
100 Industrial-Strength Tips & Tools 
By Andrew Lockhart

I'll try to use it in one of my firewall tests and will report on the 
results.
