This is useful for testing PMTUD problems. It works for me now, but needs some polishing before I release it. Questions: - Would such a patch have a chance to be submitted to pom? - If so, where can I find information on how to submit such a patch If not, I'll just post it to the list and on my website so others can still take advantage of it. BTW, this patch is completely incompatible with the fake-source patch. ipt_REJECT would need major surgery to enable both patches. Imo this is not a problem (just don't apply both patches), but I'ld like to know how others think about this. Martijn Lievaart
