I have a problem with my RH7.1 box that acts as a PPP dial up gateway. The setup is as follows. The Linux box is set up to do PPP on demand through a modem for several computers on my home network. It runs a firewall, DNS, and file services for the network.
A few months ago, following a change at my ISP, http access to some sites stopped working. After a few days and some long web searches, I found that the MTU size on the PPP link was smaller than that on the ethernet (570 and 1500 respectively). Part of the fix was upgrading to RH7.1, as well as specifying an MTU size in the PPP options. This worked until last week, when the ISP stopped honouring my request for an MTU of 1534 and dropped it to 1460. Now I have several http sites that I cannot access because fragments of packets get lost. Suggestions? Upgrading to RH7.2 will be difficult as redhat is one of the sites I can't get to. -- -- Glenn Henshaw | Ottawa, Canada Play: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Work: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Seawolf-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/seawolf-list
