Hello Carson,

Thanks for pointing that out; I did not realized the 'ack' flag and was
only focused on the 'S'; it is now clear why the pkg can not pass the
IPF firewall;

but it remains a question; I collected all the traffic for the IP
10.0.1.40 and this is what was captured:

13:30:07.989088 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: S 
356680283:356680283(0) win 8192 <mss 1460>
13:30:07.994005 IP 10.0.1.40.1720 > xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232: S 
85446234:85446234(0) ack 356680284 win 23360 <mss 536>
13:30:08.153383 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: . ack 1 win 8192
13:30:08.153391 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: P 1:5(4) ack 1 win 
8192
13:30:08.154131 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: P 5:222(217) ack 1 
win 8192
13:30:08.182341 IP 10.0.1.40.1720 > xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232: P 1:104(103) ack 222 
win 23139
13:30:08.320937 IP 10.0.1.40.1720 > xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232: P 104:242(138) ack 
222 win 23139
13:30:08.346463 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: . ack 104 win 8093
13:30:08.494931 IP xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3232 > 10.0.1.40.1720: . ack 242 win 8058
13:30:08.499026 IP 10.0.1.40.2546 > xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.3233: S 
49301289:49301289(0) ack 979701897 win 23360 <mss 536>
        ...

Why 10.0.1.40 sends out a SYN to the remote side having 'ack' turned on
and having set the destination port to n+1 of the source port of the
established connection? Do you have an idea about?

Thanks again for your help.
