 +==== String Termination ====
 +Some of the packet header fields contain arrays of ASCII characters ("strings"):
 +  - password
 +  - origDomain
 +  - destDomain
 +
 +If the string values are shorter than the maximum allowed (e.g. 8 characters), then the remaining bytes of the field should be zero-filled. If the string value is exactly the maximum allowed length, then there is no required string terminator (e.g. NUL byte) following the value and the array should not be treated as a null-terminated (i.e. ASCIIZ) string.
