Sorry, but you seem to have not understood me at all.

And he is not alone.

You should perhaps start by telling us which protocol you are taling about. A client asking for a hash sounds like some peer-to-peer file sharing protocol, but rsync also uses a kind of hash. If it is not a common protocol, like HTTP, FTP, rsync, link to the protocol spec.

Then, don't invent new terminology, use the one from the protocol spec.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
