This fix has been around for at least 4-5 years to my knowledge. I don't know why it isn't on by default by now, but I guess it wasn't all that big an issue in the old dial-up world.

Well, I think even MS sees the Black Hole discovery as more of a hack than a fix. Dropping the MSS/MTU to the lowest possible value (536/576) would, as the MS docos say, have a detrimental effect on performance, although it seems that this is done on a per-connection basis. Is there anything equivalent for Linux, *BSD and Cisco, incidentally? -- Juha Saarinen - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
