Re: ICMP Packets.

As a follow-on to this thread, I too appear to be getting the same traffic profile, with what seems to be the identical content upon casual inspection.

I see these coming in from workstations at a remote site (via VPN) and they are heading to our netware fileserver on a regular basis. The snort sensor is seeing the unencrypted traffic behind the tunnel walls.

Is this some kind of weird (read: on crack) way of discovering the path MTU to a fileserver for MS clients?

Incidentally, that is what I was doing.. I see a 'Microsoft' image after
reconstructing it!

If you need the file (binary jpeg), I could send it to you off the list
(not sure if binary attachments are allowed here).

Thanks,
