I have an ethernet switch that I've lost the password to. I can enter a debug mode where I get a dump that should contain the password, but I have yet to find a tool to turn this: 00FF0100 00008000 000055AA 010055AA 00100016 0055AA55 12A00016 00080001 10002C00 05EA00FF 00080007 00AA55AA 12500007 00000001 0004000D 00AA55AA into ascii characters. All binary editors see this as a text file rather than a a binary. Any ideas? I know I could punch these into a calculator, but, blechh. I have about 2000 lines to poke through... Any hints appreciated, Thanks, Charles To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
