Missing checksums on FTP server?

2006-11-12 Thread Jonathan Schleifer
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: RIPEMD160 Hi! I already searched the archives for that, but only found out that the missing xorg sets checksums have something to do with the build process. But why aren't they just added after the build? Where can I get the checksums for the xorg sets?

Route does not time out

2006-08-22 Thread Jonathan Schleifer
Hi! Recently I just had a look at netstat -nrf inet and saw an IP not even in the network. Two days later I realized it was my friend's PC (he visisted me here with his PC) because he had the same IP again on a second visit with his PC. But then I wondered why it was still in the routing table.

I don't see where you set the MTU/MSS? Are you sure you have set them somewhere else? eBay is known to have problems with bad/wrong MTU/MSS. Try adding scrub out on $ext_if max-mss 1414 to your pf.conf and adding -mtu 1454 to the route. Also take a look at pppoe(4) [*NOT* pppoe(8)!], section
