Hi,
I've just received e-mail about a bug in the kernel which causes linux to reboot when the following ping is issued from windowz 95 : "ping -l 65510 linux.box.IP.address" .. I tried it and sure enough linux dies quickly and without any warning ...
Has someone got more info on this ??? is there a fix ?
Cheers
