>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-960501-SNAP i386
>Environment:

	Nothing really relevant here

	

>Description:

	If a network link is broken, a TCP connection is dropped
	by a rexmit timeout after about 30 seconds. As far as I know
	this is incorrect. 
	

>How-To-Repeat:

	
	For example, telnet to a machine, power down a router between
	the origin and the destination, and press some keys. After some
	retransmits, the connection will be dropped.
