The problem is if the distribution is sitting on another FreeBSD machine, rfc1323 and rfc1644 will be negotiated. Many annexen and other terminal servers cannot handle these packetts, so any tcp session will fail to a host that supports the advanced tcp options. Its not a FreeBSD bug at all. -- Justin T.
