Hi Douglas,

I reached out to the engineering team and we determined that the discrepancies 
are in MS-DRSR. MS-DRSR should reflect " a match length of up to 65,535 bytes + 
3 bytes" as well as " This scheme is good for lengths of up to 279". I've 
submitted a bug against the document and you should see this updated in a 
future document release.

Thank you for helping us keep the docs up to date. Please let me know if you 
have any further questions.

Regards,
Kristian Smith

as MS-WUSP 2.1.1.1 CompressOrDecompressWin2k3 ?

hi Dochelp.

The MS-DRSR and MS-WUSP definitions of CompressOrDecompressWin2k3 look very 
similar.
Are they really the same procedure?

If they are in fact the same, my next question is which document is most 
correct.
I haven't looked closely, but I see these differences:

MS-WUSP: This scheme is good for lengths of up to 279
MS-DRSR: This scheme is good for lengths of up to 278

MS-WUSP: a match length of up to 65,535 bytes + 3 bytes
MS-DRSR: a match length of up to 32,768 bytes + 3 bytes

Perhaps one has been updated and not the other?


In November 2022[1] I asked if MS-XCA 2.3 and 2.4 "Plain LZ77" was the same as 
the MS-DRSR procedure. The answer was "MS-DRSR uses a different API than what 
MS-XCA uses", which I took to mean that even if it was initially intended that 
they were the same, they could easily be accidentally different. I guess my 
first question could be answered in the same way -- are these using the same 
shared library function?
