I confirm that your patch seems to work, and work well, between
Linux machines.
Of course it does, this was my experimental test bed ;-)
However, there seems to be a problem when communicating between
Linux machines and Suns. Linux seems to agravate a silly-window
syndrome on the Sun.
Ok, interesting.
Here is the result of reading the character-generator on a Linux
machine. every time the received packet-length changes, results
are written. Otherwise, there is no output from the program.
Ok, these data points are real nice. However (as I mentioned in
another mail to this list) it is insufficient for me to fix things. I
need tcpdump output which logs the session showing the bad behavior.
It is also nice to get a tcpdump of good behavior as well, especially
when talking to one TCP implementation shows the problem and another
which doesn't.
So I ask politely that you provide me with tcpdump traces of sessions
exhibiting the bad behavior to SunOS machines. Thanks. ;-)
