Hi,

I hope I can post to the Kernel Mailinglist if I am not subscribed...

The subject is very long done. But I have not found useful answers to
this strange kernel log message.

Well I have the same every night when my backup on the local host is
running. Many of the "kernel: TCP: Treason uncloaked! Peer
192.168.17.2:2988/33016 shrinks window 3035402428:3035418812. Repaired."

But 192.168.17.2 is the same host! So the buggy TCP stack seams to be in
linux kernel.

By the way, I run 2.4.24.

For answers please address me direct as I'm not subscribet to the list.

Regards
   Klaus
