Marc Daniels wondered:

Do we know if the Nachi worm author(s) pulled the ping functionality
directly from the CyberKit tool, or is the matching payload just a
coincidence?

It's a coincidence -- padding AAAA's is a pretty common programming habit
for a lot of people.

In case you're curious, Microsoft's preferred echo string is the printable
alphabet (a..z), and RedHat's is a pair of hex series (0a, 0b, 0c, 0d, 0e,
0f, then x10,x11,x12..x35).
