Re: [Win2k - Version 8.0.2] - StartupMessage Format Question

OK, thanks for the info about the correct ASCII character.
Now I am using ASCII 0 and it still doesn't work.

$string = 'user' . chr(0) . 'postgres' . chr(0) . 'database' . chr(0) .  'maach' . chr(0) . chr(0);
$version = pack('Nnna30', 34, 3, 0, $string);

I must be missing something else.
Am I calculating the string length correctly?
Is the length/version/revision/string being packed correctly?
Maybe my pack statement is all wrong?
Any help would be much appreciated.
