I'm running mail services (exim, fetchmail, popper) on FreeBSD 4.5
In a session trying to track down a problem related to a bad
cable, I found that
tcpdump -i xl0 -v -v -v host pop.incentre.net
has lots of lines like this:
20:20:11.166767 postie.sjsa.internal.net.1126 >
bach.ccinet.ab.ca.pop3: F [bad tcp cksum 4f5e!]
61:61(0) ack 2075 win 33304 <nop,nop,timestamp 3005321 3937592>
(DF) (ttl 64, id 57145, len 52, bad cksum 0!)
But netstat -I xl0 -w 10 during the same interval when the
above were coming down at 5-10 per second showed:
input (xl0) output
packets errs bytes packets errs bytes colls
32 0 4019 28 0 4573 0
24 0 3512 22 0 4934 0
444 0 30070 433 0 227132 0
Explanations? (I also get them on the local network;
it's not just this destination host.)
