In-Reply-To: <HPEKJHKCLJALHKKNBDAIOEEKCNAA.sebas () tatan com ar> Hi I received this e-mail from Gyrniff <frohn () superbruger dk>: *** start: *** I used ethereal to sniff a connection and looked at the SYN-ACK packet. This SYN-ACK did no look like any SYN-ACK packets I ever have looked at (and I have looked at a few, I'm working on making a TCP fingerprint better than nmap ;-)) so I just wonder if your cabel modem died on the first SYN-ACK or did you resive any of the html content too ? My theory is, that it could be a malfunction in the TCP-stack, I don't think the html content contains any thread. *** end *** To help him and others to figure out what is going on I used ethereal to capture all packets and print them out to 3 textfiles ( summary, detail and hex data ). I have compressed the files into a zipfile which can be downloaded via this link: skybuck.soshost.net/VanDaleCrash.zip Anyone that is interested can freely download it :) Please dont use it to nuke me or stuff like that :) To bad www.vandale.nl does not work on my cable modem... I used it regularly to search for the meaning of dutch words. It's a very well known dutch dictionary called 'Van Dale'. The online version is just a tiny version. Greetz Skybuck.
