nuqneH,

I am currently writing a TDS proxy for firewall (ms-sql and sybase). 
Some questions are:

a) How can i _reliably_ detect login packet? Parsing based on message
id is not reliable: i've seen ms sql client that does set _all_ messages
id to 0x04 and it still works!

b) What is OOB data format? is it the same packet-based one? What for
OOB messages are used?

c) What else is worth filtering?

                                     _     _  _  _  _      _  _
