I'm running a vanilla pl14, net2d code, on a : Is it possible to specify *any* MTU value when initiating a connection, : or must the MTU value match the server's MTU value? Yes using dip. The command is get $mtu XXXX (for dip 3.3.2 and above). It is advisable to have MTU smaller or the same with ther server's MTU, this is to avoid fragmentation. Eventhough pl14 do support fragmentation/re- assembly, it is not good enough and you might get kernel panic. Hamid hamid@mhmsys.pc.my
