Hi Mattias, I see what you mean, there is a difference, in that respect. But adding that flexibility would be a way to hide a problem. I have cross-checked that no server version was supposed to drop the '.0' from the line sent back to the client, so there is a real problem with that old server, running an unmaintained version of XRootD, probably a buffer overflow or similar. I do not think it is a good idea to change the code to accommodate for a bug in a deprecated version. I think we should just revert this patch and fix the other problems with the current version that you have spotted and provided possible fixes. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
