We have been doing some high volume tests of ISC's latest release of
TCP/IP. Things look pretty good except for an occaisional (1/1000)
error generated on a read of a socket -- errno 77, bad data packet.
What does this error mean?
Where should we look to fix it?

I had the same problem with the 2.0.2 distribution and ftp to a non-ISC host. Mainly to our PC's running NCSA_Telnet, and Excelan's FTP software. I never had it between other systems, only when ftp'ing to the 386/ix systems. Interractive was very helpful and responded on the net once with a suggestion, and then later via email requested some more info on the problem. Then no response or resolution from ISC. I have just learned to live with it. People have to watch their FTP transfers here and rerun it if something failed. I was hoping that it was fixed in the 2.2 distribution. (Oh, by the way, I could not duplicate the problem between two ISC systems) -- Stu Donaldson UUCP: {smart-host}!gtisqr!stu Engineering Manager ARPA: gtisqr!stu@yang.cpac.washington.edu Global Technology Bell: (206) 742-9111 Mukilteo, Washington. -- Stu Donaldson UUCP: {smart-host}!gtisqr!stu Engineering Manager ARPA: gtisqr!stu@yang.cpac.washington.edu Global Technology Bell: (206) 742-9111 Mukilteo, Washington.
