Hello,

I've been trying to track down the answer to this and am coming up
empty handed. I'm hoping someone might shed some light on the
following.

When I do:

Why is the "mss" value "40" ? Everything works just fine so I'm
thinking that this is a bug of some sort.

When I do "ifconfig" it shows the appropriate mtu value but this isn't
reflected in the routing table?
