I am running FreeBSD 2.0.5. I would really appresiate if you could tell me how you managed FreeBSD's TCP/IP to talk to trumpet winsock's TCP/IP. Using Trumpet winsock I dial the FreeBSD box and establish the slip connection between Dos and the FreeBSD box. I can see the web pages on the internet. But, Every now and then the slip connection just drops or the data stops comming. Infact after 3 or 4 pages the connection just drop's. Have you come accross problem like this? Do you see any problem with the TCP/IP? When I turn on the Tracing on the DOS machine, some time the Trumpet winsock complains like this "Unknown TCP -- reseting". After that point the TCP/IP connection just drops? Any suggestion? >There is something called the Transaction TCP wich tends to confuse >broken term server. This could be disabled in the 2.0.5 version. That's what I read in the news group archive. There were couple of line I was suppose to add in the sysconfig file to take care of the problem. I did add the following lines. sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=0 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1644=0 (This will turn of T/TCP (Transaction TCP). This did not work. Same problem still exsists. Thank you very much for taking time to read. Thanks, Tushar Patel
