I'm not sure what you mean by conservative but the reply I get when the
mail server sends a TCP sync with ECN is a Reset packet. Which is
documented as a big no-no. And is a know bug of Cisco PIX router for
example.
Anyway my point was just to let other people know so they don't have to
waste time trying to fix this.

TCNZ firewall is busted --- how about someone there just fix it? It's really not that hard, and most if not all vendors have had patches out there for six months or more for this. --cw - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
