Hmm, what was the source-port, just a random one? Anything at all familiar about the source IP?

Also, before I look too closely at the data, are you sure that's the actual data (ie: is the original EXACTLY 110 byes long, and contains no non-ASCII bytes)? A quick casual inspection of that string doesn't ring a bell, but if there's bytes missing.... well...


If it's not 110 bytes, send a hexdump of the real data (yes, hexdump is the name of a unix utility for dumping binary hex values). Trying to email a binary that's been copy-pasted as text worthless.. any spot there's a 00 byte it will be dropped, among lots of other bytes.

For what it's worth, Port 14000 seems to be a default port for Inprise Visibroker..

It's because, I was seeing a syn connection to my firewall on port 14000
but my firewall was blocking it. So I opened up that port and created
a netcat listener. That's the string that I captured.
So what is it?
