Hi all,
With ipfw running, we've had reports from users having no success accessing
our www servers - they can't connect at all. One user talked to his ISP
and they traced it to a 'MTU' setting problem. A friend thinks this is a
problem with incorrect MTUs resulting in fragmented packets.
Are we on the right track ? Anoyone have experience of this problem ?
Would adding the 2nd 'ipfw' config below help ? ..
/sbin/ipfw add pass tcp from any to ${ip} 80 setup
/sbin/ipfw add pass tcp from any to ${ip} 80 frag
thanks in advance,
rob
