|    FIN flag set in TCP header of a data pac    |
|    30 Apr 13 02:19:52    |
      Hi all,              I was looking at some FTP file transfer traffic, and noticed that in a couple       of these file transfers, the FIN flag is set in the TCP header of a data       packet carrying the file contents. I'm curious to know what this means and why       this would occur,        because I thought FIN flags are not usually set in data packets.              Thank you.              Regards,       Rayne              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
