!@#%@#^%^$#^@#$%#@!$%!@%@#@# Whos the blasted bozo that broke TCP! :-)
:-(
I believe I have found another problem. It may not be related to this
one but I sure hope it is.
When the receiver's window contracts to zero causing the sender to
stop transmitting, TCP stalls for 5 seconds. In otherwords, some bozo
broke the window restart code.... when the receiver drains its buffer
NO ACK IS SENT INDICATING THAT THE WINDOW HAS OPENED UP!!!! It's only
luck that the TCP idle code picks it up and acks it after 5 seconds.
Somebody broke something horrendously in the TCP stack.
!$#%@#$^%#@^@#%!@#$@!#$@#$@#$ blast it! I'm going to fry the responsible
party when I get this tracked down.
