In the testing on findu, no aprsd ports were open to the outside world, there was only a single client connection by my findu parser, which sends no data. The tests were on single connects to APRServe and AHub machines, which do a good job of scrubbing the stream. The input stream for 10 packets before and 20 packets after the crashes during the tests were carefully scrutinized, all packets were well formed, legal APRS packets. There was no obvious pattern to the input stream. Steve K4HG |
