Hi,

A few weeks ago, I reported on some systematic tcp packet corruption (when
talking to netbsd from a recent linux 2.1.*). I still reliably experience
this with 2.1.131. I don't experience this from a linux 2.0.* kernel
on a similar (pentium) platform, nor do I experience this from Solaris.

Is this old news? Should I be performing some kinds of tests for someone
to help analyze this problem? Should I wait for 2.2 so that other people
can experience the problem for themselves?

[Last time I posted tcpdumps from both ends of a tcp connection, showing
bad timestamps on the corrupted packets. Should I post that kind of
thing again? Something else?]

Thanks,
