Well the truth of this is niether my linux box, nor my Windows 2K box nor a
client solaris box directly attached to my parent DNS server can access
Bill's web server. According to my parent DNS administrator (finger
pointing time) the problem is with Bill's parent DNS server. Something to
do with dual servers in the same IP subnet. I do know this I can access
Bill's site via IP and traceroute works ok so it is a DNS problem. Since I
can get, DNSwise that is, any where else without any problem I tend to
believe my parent DNS administrator (understand I am far from a DNS expert
and if they told me the sky was purple I'd believe them :-). Further, even
though I did have tcp_ecn set to 1, neither changing it on the fly to "0" or
recompiling the kernel without it, fixed the problem.
But besides all this, Bill, I did manage to get the latest videum stuff but
accessing the URL to get the latest videodevX has not been successful.
Namely http://63.198.58.131/v4l2 doesnt seem to respond. Did any of the
last stuff I sent you help witht he video problem?

Its an IETF standard. If it causes problems the other site is broken, and
there
are actually very few problems sites now that cisco fixed their code.
Especially
as their was a cisco security alert later that made people pick up the
change
