Hello, all:
 
  I'm trying to process some data files that are
described as being BER encoded but are also
blocked.  Of the two examples I have, the fill
octets for one of the files are "00" and for the
other, "FF".  Is this technically "correct" BER
encoding?  I'm not seeing any way to unambiguously
discriminate between end-of-contents octets (in the
case of the "00" fill octets), and I'm also wondering
how many "FF" octets you would see in a decode
operation before you decided you were looking at
padding characters (as opposed to "real" encoded
data).
 
Thanks -- Wayne
