Hi all,

 

first of all, great job on this one, works flawlessly 🙂 i'm trying to understand couple of things here, and i would appreciate your help ,I could not understand what are the following steps are needed :

 

set md5me [binary format cH2SH32H$static::secretlen $code $ident $len $auth $static::secrethex]
 running the MD5 
set ResponseAuthRaw [ md5 $md5me] 
 doing some string to binary conversion, i am sure i can avoid this, need to optimize it 
binary scan $ResponseAuthRaw H* ResponseAuth 
 crafting the response packet 
set packetdata [binary format cH2SH32 $code $ident $len $ResponseAuth]
