[bug?] expect in bb-services should set banner automagically
Hi Henrik,
I just lost 2 hours because I failed to set the "banner" option when expecting a response from an ajp13 service in tomcat.
Won't it be nice to have an "auto banner ON" when expecting some feedback from the server ?
By the way, here is the protocol to test AJP 1.3 :
[ajp13] send "\x12\x34\x00\x01\x0a" expect "\x41\x42\x00\x01\x09" options banner port 8009
(sends a PING command)
Regards,

No, I don't think so. Some of the data you get back might very well be binary that you don't want to display.
Another reason is that if you auto-enable something, then there has to be a way of explicitly DISabling it. So doing what you ask would mean I would have to also enable a "nobanner" option.

Thanks, added to the default bb-services file.

That is, when I drop the banner option, all my ajp13 tests go yellow saying "Unexpected service response". As soon as I put the banner option back, they turn green.
It that case, I get binary data I don't want to display, but omitting the banner options fails :

This is why I suspect a bug, or at least a misfeature ;)

OK, I see now. Could you try if the attached patch solves this problem?

Well, it just _works_. Thanks a lot Henrik !
