Volker,
The following is the information you requested regarding DataOffset in
WRITE_ANDX request.
Each request is self-describing, so the offset is always from the start of
the SMB Header for the current message. In this case, the DataOffset is
relative to the SMB_HEADER of the current request (not just the first request).
The only offset in either protocol that spans multiple requests is the
"AndXOffset/NextCommand" that links the requests.
Please let us know if you have further questions.
Thanks !

Well, this is actually a question I need an answer on, as right now I am in the
process of rewriting our chained SMB engine, and it is a bit difficult for me
to trigger a Windows client doing that kind of request.
It is a bit unsatisfactory that the CAR process right now only covers the newer
protocols and for the old protocols we are deferred to some unknown point in
the future. I think this is not what the CAR process was installed for.
What do I have to do to get an answer on my question?
Volker
