That's a very good question, actually...
TCP provides a stream.  The packets will be made available in the order in 
which they were sent, but *not* as discreet packets.  You might call 
recv() and get the end of the last packet, all of the current packet, and 
the first part of the next packet.  You have to collect and parse the 
input.

The nature of the SMB protocol hides that fact.  In general, the client 
will only get a message from the server if the client asked for it.  You 
send a request, wait for the entire reply, then send another request.

The keep-alive is one situation in which the messages can get interleaved.  
It can also happen if there are multiple processes using the same SMB 
connection.

Could be ahead, could be behind.  Fortunately, the NBT Session Service 
headers all provide a message length field.  Yes, you do have to watch for 
and handle this situation.

Ethereal is recommended, if only because the rest of us know how to read 
it...

^^^^^^^^^^ Thanks, I will download it and try.Is it more powerful than NAI sniffer?NAI 
sniffer
               will treat a packet simply beginning with 0x85 as keep-alive, an 
obvious bug:)

Okay.  I wasn't sure about that.  Thanks for letting me know.

When they receive an *NBT* packet.  The NBT keepalive timer is managed at
the NBT layer.  The TCP stream won't reset the timer, but the initial READ
RAW request *should* reset the timer.

^^^^^^^^But I think raw data is also an NBT packet,which is passed through to user 
layer.
        So, server is responsible to reset the timer anyway. And the read raw request ,
        doesn't reset timer either, as I have seen,just between two read request, 
keep-alive occurs.

What I can't tell from the graphic you sent is whether the keep-alive 
message is interleaved with the raw read messages.  It shouldn't be 
because, as I've said, the initial READ RAW request from the client should 
reset the timer and the READ RAW itself should be finished before the 
timer expires.

I really can't imagine Samba making the mistake of sending the keep-alive 
while it is in the middle of a READ RAW operation, but I would believe it 
if I saw a capture that shows it (an Ethereal capture would be 
best...www.ethereal.com...it's free).

^^^^^^^ I really don't see this too. What I have seen is that keep-alive appends to 
the head of 
        response or a seperate keep-alive packet. But I have no evidence that it will 
NOT be 
        sent out during raw data stream,especially in a mutithread environment.

^^^^^^^  And I find a way,in windows, there is a registry key  controlling 
sessionkeepalive(it just name of it)
        So, I can switch it off then none of keep-alive can be sent out any more.If no 
other safer
        solution, I will do it this way.

Windows... well, I suppose it would be easier to imagine, but I'd still 
want to see the capture.
