That is not much of an intelligible idea. A way to hack the kernel could be found as I still presume. "Turn off checksums" but not by re-writing the whole tcp code in the kernel. Isn't that possible ? Linux is an operating system of infinite possibilities, right ? But only if you know how to hack it... -----Original Message----- From: Denis Vlasenko [mailto:vda@port.imtp.ilyichevsk.odessa.ua] Sent: Saturday, August 21, 2004 10:11 AM To: Josan Kadett; 'Aidas Kasparas' Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: RE: Entirely ignoring TCP and UDP checksum in kernel level On Saturday 21 August 2004 12:00, Josan Kadett wrote: > The problem is that the interface 192.168.1.1 does not allow any > tranmission to occur.

Maybe dust off some old Pentium 133 and replace that piece of electronic crap with decent Linux machine? -- vda - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
