Hi , I need some info about the following snippet .
----------------------------------------------------------- protocol = 'NTLMSSP\000' #name type = '\001\000' #type 1 zeros1 = '\000\000' zeros2 = '\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000' zeros3 = '\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000' smthg1 = '0\000\000\000\000\000\000\000' # something with chr(48) length? smthg2 = '0\000\000\000' # something with chr(48) lenght? msg1 = protocol + type + zeros1 + flags + zeros2 + zeros3 + smthg1 + smthg2 msg1 = base64.encodestring(msg1) msg1 = string.replace(msg1, '\012', '') ------------------------------------------------------- In the above code what does " 000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\000 " signify ? Which form of representation is this ? This code is from the NTLM APS python code from sourceforge 0.98 version . -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
