Greetings,
Kernel version is 2.5.7-pre2 if that matters.
I was reading lkml with a forgotten tcpdump running, when my son turned
on his windows box, blessing me with the usual msjunk. Is the attached
just a tcpdump bug? I had already read that message, and didn't really
expect to see it again.. not in my tcpdump log anyway :)

I presume your box is a Linux one.
Is this packet went from your box to win box?
What was running on your box? Samba?
Did you use smbfs?

Yes.
> Is this packet went from your box to win box?
No, it looks to me like tcpdump just gets uncleared pages, makes a
booboo while processing ms packet and spits out old page content.
(security doesn't matter to me, but I figured maybe it shouldn't be
doing that.. worth sending a note just in case)

No samba here. (configured in, but I never found a round-tuit)

This looks like standard SMB garbage. It probably repeats on a regular
basis. From what I remember, I think it is a Windows box browsing
the network trying to discover other SMB boxes, finding a 'master
browser', and other such stuff.
I see it all the time when there are Windows machines about, and I'm
running tcpdump.
I imagine that someone who knows better, such as the Samba guys, would be
able to tell you exactly whats going on, and maybe some other interesting
tidbits of information.

That's not the problem part of the tcpdump output. The problem is that part
of an email previously read on the linux box (with no samba runing. (also,
no smbfs MikeG?)) showed up in the tcpdump output...

I haven't been following the whole thread, but it is _possible_ that the
email data was written to the end of a data block which was later re-used
for a file exported via SMB. Depending on how the SMB code works, is it
possible that it is sending a whole block of data to the client and/or
not zeroing out new blocks?
Of course (not having looked at the original tcpdump output), is it
possible that the email was captured by tcpdump because it arrived on
the host via the network?
Cheers, Andreas

I'm still waiting to find out what computer 10.0.0.101 is for MikeG...
But, he's not running samba or smbfs, and the email was encoded within a smb
packet...

The data sent/received on the network is precious. You will not have
any 'extra' data on its end except for possibly a single byte if the
data didn't have an even length. Note that these things are checksummed
and also CRCed in the hardware.
If you got part of somebody's email, I think you should look at
the `tcpdump` source. It may be the culprit...

Wrong for ethernet. Ethernet has a minimum frame size

You will have padding if the ethernet packet is less than 60 bytes and
if necessary it will be more than a single byte. I am not sure what is
the value of the paddin bythes though. May be zero..

There was no SMB involved on the box that errors and as I understand it
the email never touched the windows box involved. I think this is just
tcpdump misbehaving.
I'm guessing that Mike ran tcpdump with no -s parameter. The tcpdump
decoder (for SMB and probably others) doesn't seem to look at how much
data is valid when it decodes. At least I believe that I have seen it
do that before and/or when playing with some decode to ascii patch.
The SMB part that is decoded is ridiculous. word count of 66 (10-15 yes,
lots of those but 66?). The Flags do not match what any server I know of
returns.
Further, when there is a smb error return normally the rest of the packet
is empty. And the (known) error classes are 0, 1, 2, 3, not 0x46. Some of
the "parameter words" (smb_vwv) looks suspicously like ascii data.
Like you say, if the tcpdump was running while the email was received on
Mike's box it is possible that it had that data in some buffer. When it
later got this message (in another buffer) and tried to decode it, it
decoded the length the message said it had and simply spewed out random
bytes from memory.
Someone that feels like doing some hex to ascii conversion can find work

Hmm. There were other 'packets' containing binary data and ascii which I'm
pretty sure was not part of any network traffic.
I'll repeat this, and post a follow-up if I see anything which is definitely
not received data. For now, I'll assume that it's a harmless tcpdump booboo.

My son's win98 box. I'm ~positive that the message did _not_ propagate
to my son's box and come back via net.. local data exposed probably via
page return.
