The 17-bit length field in the header contains the number of
bytes which follow the header, not the full packet size.
[Yes, the length field is either 17-bits, or (per the RFCs) it is a
16-bit length field preceeded by an 8-bit flags field of which only
the low-order bit may be used. If that bit is set, then add 65536 to
the 16-bit length field. (In other words, it's a 17-bit unsigned
length field.)
...unless, of course, the transport is native TCP [port 445] in which
case the length field *might* be 24-bits wide.]
Anyway, the change is a very minor one. We were including the four bytes
of the header in the length count and, as a result, sending four bytes of
garbage at the end of the SESSION REQUEST packet.
Small fix in function cli_session_request().
(This used to be commit d08471688b65371eb3de73b03a8ffaee86659ba0)
