Description Anton Bolshakov 2006-03-05 06:48:44 UTC
Some web servers (Server: nginx/0.3.29) returns http headers in the different case. Dsniff will fail to detect the post request and miss the the posted password in this case.
The patch to fix this is attached in the next message.

Improvment.

Sent mail upstream but got no response and as it is pretty safe, applying it.

Fixed in CVS, thanks much :)
