Just to add a little fuel to the fire:

I've been experiencing TCP related connection failures from most/all
hosts at internic.net, with at least whois and http (though not
SMTP).

For example when I attempt to do a whois I'll normally only get back
the
first two lines of output (i.e. "\nRegistrant:\n").  Then the
connection
hangs and times out.  From my point of view it seems that the
connection
has indeed been cut off.  The weird part is that this only happens
for
NetBSD-1.3.x hosts on my network.  BSDI BSD/OS 1.1, Ultrix, and at
one
point SunOS-4.1 hosts were all receiving complete output from whois
queries.  [...]

I've noticed the same thing, but on a FreeBSD server.  My personal
Linux box, and the Solaris box here both work fine.

Hmmm.
