Arexx help needed

[wurzel]

Hi all,

I have something peculiar happening. Every so often, the lights on my printer flash as if receiving input, though I'm not printing anything. I ran Snoopdos and got this:

#FINDINPUT 186F23DD, 18066BAF, 186C7B89

It's an Arexx command, then I get several lines of:

#READ 1860EF0D, 61532204, CC
#READ 1860EF0D, 61532204, CC
#READ 1860EF0D, 61532204, CC

and finally:

#END 1860EF0D

Can anyone deduce what is happening and what program this originates from? It only started recently but I can't think of anything I did to start this behaviour.

Thanks guys.

It's an HP Laserjet 6MP with Postscript module & 16mb RAM, running OS3.9 BB2. I recently installed OpenSSL, if that might be the culprit.

I wonder what makes you think this could be related to ARexx in any way. FINDINPUT is a DOS packet generated by the Open function, here called like Open(filename,MODE_OLDFILE).

The Open probably is in the SnoopDOS log just above the FINDINPUT packet. You should not enable packet monitoring unless you really know what you are looking for. The Open log entry also names the file which is tried to open. Unless it is something like PAR: or PRT:, it is completely unrelated to the printer.

The originating process name is listed in each line of the SnoopDOS log in the column left of the action.

It would be better if you post the entire SnoopDOS log so that it can be interpreted by someone who can actually read it instead of just digging in the dark.
