Hi all,

I am having an strange problem here. I have a linux as frontend to access internet. This linux box is splitting packets when I try to connect to a web-server. The mtu of the interface is 1500 bytes and the mms negotiated with the webserver is 1360 bytes but the packets are splitted at 740 bytes. I have set a direct route to the host with a mtu of 900 and it haven´t worked. This is showing me that perhaps linux is not as different as windows as i thought.

Regards,
Mario.
