Wireshark Easter Egg

cvctimingMember

Has anyone ever used Wireshark to capture packets from a FinishLynx camera while it's booting? On my EtherLynx Vision camera there's a standard packet containing some copyright information, but the previous 19 packets contain a variety of data, the last character of each spells: "A Kirk is wonderful"

Anyone know who Kirk is?

Kirk is the lead software developer for FinishLynx. I forwarded this post to him and he said you're the first person in 20 years to ever notice it

That's fantastic! Thanks for sharing that - glad that Kirk is still around to solve the mystery

Actually I recall the Nathan Fraser in Australia discovered this 5 years ago but never posted his findings.
