STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL

The President/CEO,

Dear Sir/Madam,

I on behalf of my colleagues from different Federal Government of Nigeria
owned Establishments decided to solicit your assistance as regard transfer
of the above mentioned amounts into your bank account. This fund arose from
over-invoicing of various contracts awarded in my Establishment to certain
foreign contractors sometimes ago.

We as holders of sensitive position in our various establishments were
mandated by the Federal Government to scrutinize all payments made to
certain foreign contractors and we discover that some of the contract they
executed, were grossly over-invoiced either by omission or commission. Also
we discovered that the sum of US$33.6M (Thirty-three Million Six Hundred
Thousand U.S. dollars) was lying fallow in a suspense account
although the foreign contractors were fully paid their contract
entitlement after executing the said contracts.

We all agreed that the over-invoiced amount be transferred (for our own use)
into a bank account provided by a foreign partner, because we are government
workers and the code of conduct does not allow us to run or operate foreign
accounts.

However, we have succeeded in transferring some of this over-invoiced money,
precisely $5.0M (Five Million U.S. Dollars only) into a foreign account in
Beirut -Lebanon but the provider of the account in Beirut Lebanon is up to
some mischief and refuses to comply with our earlier mutual agreement
insisting that the total amount be transferred into his nominated bank
account before disbursement will take effect.

If for a meager U.S$5.0M (Five Million Dollars only) we are not
compensated based on the terms of agreement, is it when US$28.6M
(twenty-Eight Million, Six Hundred Thousand U.S Dollars only) is transferred
that we will be sure of our full compensation?

We are therefore seeking your assistance so that the remaining amount of
U.S$28.6M can be speedily processed and fully remitted into your nominated
bank account. On successful remittance of the fund into your account, you
will be compensated with 30% of the amount for your assistance
and services.

So far, much have been said and due to our sensitive positions, we cannot
afford a slip in this transaction, neither can we give out our identity, as
regards our respective offices, but when relationship is established and
smooth operation commences, you will be furnished with details of all you
deserve to know.

I am at your disposition to entertain any question(s) with respect to this
transaction so contact me immediately through E-mail for further information
on the requirement and procedure for this transaction.

Please treat with strictest confidentiality.

Waiting for your response.

Thanks,
Dr.Gray Deper.

* Pls. Respond ASAP
From: Mary Musanga @ 2005-12-19 15:49 UTC (permalink / raw)



From: Mrs. Mary Musanga.
7130, Somerset West, 
Western Cape. 
South Africa.

Dear Sir,

With warm heart I offer my friendship, and greetings,
and I hope this mail meets you in good health.

However strange or surprising this contact might seem
to you as we have not met personally or had any
dealings in the past, I humbly ask that you take due
consideration of its importance and the immense
benefit it will be to you and I.

After careful consideration with my children, we
resolved to contact you for your most needed
assistance in this manner. I duly apologize for
infringing on your privacy if this contact is not
acceptable to you, as I make this proposal to you as a
person of integrity. I got your contacts through my
personal research and out of desperation decided to
reach you through this medium.

First and foremost I wish to introduce myself properly
to you. My name is Mrs. Mary Musanga, mother of three.
My husband, Mr. Jeff Musanga, died whilst on an
official trip to Europe last year.

After his death, I was contacted as next of kin by a
private security firm in Europe to come forth with the
Certificate of Deposit and claim a safety deposit my
husband has in their Vault in his name. 

I went through his library collection and to my
astonishment I discovered a Certificate of Deposit for
the safety deposit with this private security firm,
and other documents relating to the safety deposit.

The safety deposit which is in a trunk contains the
sum of $18,000,000 which was generated from cash
payments from his business associates in the diamond
trade from Antwerp, Belgium. Though I knew my late
husband was in the diamond business, I did not have
the knowledge that he moved funds in cash. 

This has came as a shock to me and my children, and we
have decided to have this fund invested immediately in
commercial and residential properties abroad as well
as profitable ventures, as no member of my family can
hold such a huge amount in our name, hence we
sincerely propose to you to render us your most needed
assistance in this regard.

If you agree to render us your assistance, your role
in this project will be to act on my behalf as a
trustee to receive the safety deposit containing the
funds from the Security firm. Though I believe this
transaction should be based on mutual benefit and
interest.  

For your reliable assistance, we are offering you 20%
of the funds. I thank you in advance as we anticipate
your assistance in enabling us achieve this goal.

I will be working with you for a mutual conclusion of
the process and I look forward to a long lasting
business relationship with you. 

Whether or not you are interested in assisting us
please let us know. This will enable us make
alternative plans, in the event of non-interest on
your part.

With warm regards,

Mrs. Mary Musanga.

* SACK performance improvements - technical report and updated 2.6.6 patches
From: Baruch Even @ 2005-12-19 20:26 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: netdev, end2end-interest; +Cc: Douglas Leith

Hello,

I wanted to post an update about my work for SACK performance
improvements, I've updated the patches on our website and added a
technical report on the work so far.

It can be found at:
http://hamilton.ie/net/research.htm#patches

In summary: The Linux stack so far is unable to effectively handle
single transfers on 1Gbps with high rtt links (220 ms rtt is what we
tested). The sender is unable to process the ACK packets fast enough
causing lost  ACKs and increased transfer times. Our work resulted in a
set of patches that enable the Linux TCP stack to handle this load
without breaking sweat.

Your comments on this work would be appreciated.

Regards,
Baruch

* Re: SACK performance improvements - technical report and updated 2.6.6 patches
From: Craig Partridge @ 2005-12-19 21:45 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: Baruch Even; +Cc: netdev, end2end-interest, Douglas Leith
In-Reply-To: <43A7178E.4030808@ev-en.org>


Thanks for sharing!

I found the report fun reading in the sense that I don't know of many folks
who've worked on slow path performance improvement.

However, having written some of these kinds of papers in the past, I'll point
out that before it could be considered publishable, it needs a much clearer
explanation of the algorithms in the actual code and precisely how they
were modified.  For instance, it wasn't clear to me if the SACK block
code walked the list of outstanding segments for each SACK block or walked
the list of segments once, checking all the SACK blocks (they are both
n*s algorithms, but the second algorithm will have decidedly better
performance due to locality and ordering tricks you can play).

Also, it was not clear why the revised algorithm grows as O(lost packets)
vs O(cwnd).

Thanks!

Craig

are you using 4096 tx descriptors?  what is your MTU configured to? 
I'm confused because it appears you have 8192 (0x2000) descriptors but
the driver only allows 4096

I am not. My MTU is 1500. At the moment the error message is:

  TDH                  <0>
  TDT                  <3>
  next_to_use          <3>
  next_to_clean        <0>
buffer_info[next_to_clean]
  dma                  <128d61202>
  time_stamp           <100026052>
  next_to_watch        <0>
  jiffies              <10002667c>
  next_to_watch.status <0>

I can't reproduce the 2000 value.

PS: The problem does not occur with Knoppix 3.9.

Thanks for the help,

Hello,
Re:  collection  of  fund  ($USD152,  000,000.00)  under  special
arrangement.  Pardon me  if  I  have  offended  you  by  contacting  you 
for  such  a  big transaction  through an  ordinary  letter  which  makes 
it  suspicious  considering    the type  of  fraud proposals  moving 
around  the  world  today.  However,  I  was advised  to  explain this 
transaction  to  you  on  face  to  face  meeting.  I  could  not do  this
 because of  the  situation  in  the  world  today  not  being  sure  of 
your reaction.

I  am  Mr.  Jon  Kelvin,  a  consultant  and  broker  from  Kingston
Jamaica.  I  was hired  by  a  Japanese  business  man  to  broker  an 
investment  deal between  himself and  oil  company  in  Venezuela.  This 
deal  was  executed  in January  1997  and matured  for  termination  in 
2001.  On  maturity,  the  Japanese businessman  and  the oil  firm 
decided  to  terminate  the  investment  in  cash  to  avoid payment  of
investment  tax  which  amounted  to  several  millions  of  U.S dollars 
to  the America  internal  revenue  service  (IRS).  A  special 
arrangement was  made  between a  top  Japanese  banker  working  with 
Japanese  bank  in  New  York,the  oil  company and  the  businessman  to 
  terminate  the  investment  in  cash payment  under  a
fictitious  name  with  an  arrangement  to  change  it  latter  with a 
power  of  attorney  which  they  prepared  and  handed  over  to  the 
top banker.  I  was  directly involved,  well  paid  and  mandated  to 
organize  and  carry  out
the  deal.  All  the cash  was  withdrawn  in  august  2001  and 
transported  to  Europe by  direct  bank vault  to  vault  delivering  to 
a  private  diplomatic  storage  in Europe  for  safe keeping  pending 
the    collection.  The  real  content  of  the  boxes  were  not declared
 to  the  storage  as  it  was  delivered  as  personal family  treasure 
and diamonds.  The  code  for  the  storage,  secret  codes  for  the
opening  of  the  boxes and  its  keys  were  all  handed  over  to 
me.Mr.  Takashi  the  New York  business  man was  planning  to  go  to 
Europe  by  mid  of  November  2001  with me  for  the
collection  when  the  unexpectedn  happened  in  September  11th attack  
 on  the twin  tower  which  claim  his  life  and  that  of  the  top 
banker.

This  left  me devastated    and  confused  as  I  have  not  yet  handed 
over  the deposit  details  to the  owner  and  the  power  of  attorney 
prepared  fore  the  change  which  was  signed was  still  with  the 
banker  in  his  office  which  was  also  lost It  was  agreed  with the 
storage  that  the  consignment  would  be  collect  on  or before  12 
months  from the  date  of  delivery.  Since  due  date  the  diplomatic 
storage manager  has  been calling  me  to  bring  or  tell  the  owner 
to  come  over  for collection.  My  friend,
since  then  I  have  been  looking  for  any  reliable  person  to
collect these
consignment  under  special  and  well  negotiated  arrangement  until I 
got  your email  contact.

All  the  needed  secret  code  and  identification  and  collection are 
all With  me.

Be  rest  assured  that  this  transaction  has  been  well  organized,
100% Safe,legal,  risk  free  and  should  be  kept  very  confidential.

Please,  contact  me  for  the  way  forward  in  this  transaction. If 
you  think  we can  do  this  together  in  trust.
Email:jon.kevlin@email.ro

Reach  me  with  your  personal  data  as  follows.
1.  Your  phone  aand  fax  numbers.
2.  Your  physical  address  both  corperate  and
residential
3.  Age,  sex  and  marital  staatus.
4.  Position  and  name  of  office.
Expecting  to  hear  from  you  soon.
Regards,
Jon  Kelvin.

I wonder the same. I wonder how this new patch by the HTCP folks
improves what we provided for the 2.6.x (which is currently
incorporated in the latest linux version). My recollection says that
this HTCP patch periodically crashes the system very often -- so we
could not run the comparison. BTW, this fast SACK path fix we provided
are just a simple clean-up and modification from the original Tom
Kelly's SACK code - so Tom deserves the full credit for it.
