Hi,

I am struggling for a few days to decompress a tcp stream. Parts of
the stream i can decompress using perl and module
IO::Uncompress::AnyUncompress. These parts which i can decompress, are
prefix with 0x7801 . So these parts are standard Zlib RC1950.
But other parts (packets) in the same stream i can>t compress. I
suspect it is compress with RFC1951 Z_HUFFMAN_ONLY but i didn>t can
decompress it.
Can somebody see what type of compression is used?
Below an example: 3c00 is the size of the package, 4c00 is the size of
the uncompressed data i guess, and i think the start of the header/
compressed data is fd4f (packages with RFC1950 start here with 0x7801)

Example tcpdump output on compressed stream:
0x0020: 5018 feaf c89c 0000 3c00 0000 4c00 0626

0x0060: ce73

Any hint will be appreciated,
