    A little update:

    What i did before: Store the hexnumbers in an array of byte and send that array (worked for initial querry, not for the follow up)

    Sending that hex string ('xFD xFE ...' or variations of it - i.e. w/o spaces) as string doesnt work (but then again that isn't what your ruby code does if i understood it correctly).

    Upon further experimenting around with sending strings to the server i found out that building a string from acii-chars representing the hex-values (i.e. x41 x42 x43 => 'ABC' - i think that is what your ruby code does) works for the initial querry (xFD xFE x09 ...) but again not for the follow up (xFD xFE x00 ...) for me.

    Changing the last byte also doesnt change anything.

    So i have 2 ways of sending stuff to the server that work only for the initial querry but not the follow up - that makes me wonder if maybe there is something wrong with the content of my response after all.

    ye, that's one of the other threads i checked already ;o)

    I tried some more ways of sending the response to the challenge but no success so far.

    Is 973257805 actually the challenge in that example and is x3A x02 xBC x4D the right answer segment? Or did i do something wrong on that part (as opposed to the part of actually sending the response back to the server)?

    Or in other words: Am i sending back the right response in the wrong way or am i calculating the wrong response?

    edited title since the issue has been solved

    Hello,

    i would like to create some server monitoring tool (server querries via udp - but am a complete nub as far as the GS-protocol is concerned). So i read the "Fennec-ws-network-traffic" and other threads on that topic but i still have some questions/problems. Right now mostly with the "challenge part" maybe more later on.

    1) is the protocol described in that thread still used in arma 2 or has there been another change?

    2) looking at this example (picture due to forum restrictions in the next post):

    I did more or less obviously something wrong with the challenge response (as the server doesnt reply to the main querry (blue)).

    Did i understand the "building" of the challenge response correctly? Does it matter in what shape (dec/hex/ascii) the challenge part (red) is given back to the server?
