Any thoughts
on why Bro changes its output based on the optional
headers?
This almost for sure isn't the problem, as I don't believe there's any
code relating to looking at the headers in this regard.
I kinda figured that, but just wanted to make sure.
Or why it
could be sometimes outputting binary and others
ASCII Hex?
How are you using/printing the values recovered by Bro? Best bet
is that
you're running into Bro introducing some escape sequences.
I am storing the values as strings and printing to an open file. I
was concatenating the data using the fmt() command. Given what you
said, I switched to the cat () function and that works. Thanks for
making me think about it more.
The only thing I am still noticing is that with a print it appends a
newline to each print statement. Is there anyway to prevent this?
Thanks again,
