[freetds] MS SQL Query

Hi,

 

 

I wanted to know about "Login Acknowledgement token" which comes in a
response to a "Login" packet for TDS(protocol version 8) in case of MS SQL
Server  2000.

The question is, in the trace I see Server Name as "Microsoft SQL Server".
But there are  four extra unknown bytes(all zeroe's)  that come after the
Server Name.

I wanted to know how exactly the encoding is done for storing Server Name.
    

Any inputs/references which answer this query would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Shama
