As promised, here are the input and output strings for the Decode_DNS_Name(): Input:

00000000  20 46 45 45 46 45 4F 45 - 4F 45 46 46 44 46 44 45   FEEFEOEO
+EFFDFDE
00000010  46 45 46 43 41 43 41 43 - 41 43 41 43 41 43 41 42  FEFCACACA
+CACACAB
00000020  4D 00 00 20 00 01                                  M.. ..

Notice the leading 0x20 - which indicates a length of 32 bytes, that translates into a space-padded 16 bytes below:

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.
