Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Programming Discussion : Question about PHP, how to see what the php script is sending out, but it is zended.

[Crazy]

Hello,

I use a encrypted PHP script that I purchased, and I know it calls home to verify that your license information is valid and whatnot which is fine. The whole program is zend encrypted, so i caint just look and see what its sending.

But how can i see what exactly that script is sending back, I want to make sure its not sending funky server details or whatever.

I think it just connects to a remote mysql database to verify my lic is valid.

Regards,

Crazy

Most likely the communication between your box and the server is encrypted as well (or it'd be real easy to fake a legit license).

Either way, you can use tcpdump (or any other sniffer) to watch the bytes fly by and see what's being sent.
