Public bug reported:

When I try to connect to internet dhclient says to me
send_packet:"Message too long".

I've found the problem and also the solution.
The problem is the wrong MTU parameter it is normally set to 64 while it should 
be around 1500.
Besides the file /etc/dhcp3/dhcp.conf has a wrong parameter "interface-mtu".

So the solution is remove the parameter "interface-mtu" in the file
/etc/dhcp3/dhclient and set the parameter MTU to 1500 doing ifconfig
eth0 mtu 1500.

Many users in Italy have this problem with their router,please see www
.ubuntu-it.org in the section related to edgy.
