Woohoo!

Martin, thanks for the code fix. This was definitely an oversight. I
thought I had all cases where variable length data was sent, handled.
What other routines did you see that might require fixing also?
Another thought is: perhaps the server should check that no
request is sent with a length value > MAXREQUESTSZ. In
this way, it wouldn't just crash, but could drop the request.
I need to look at the code to see why this isn't already handled
properly, that was the reason for the length word in the first
place - the packet should at least have been read properly
from the client request socket.
Regards,
Greg
