Queueing can only reduce it, since it is always possible for there to be more arriving SYNs than there are remaining free queue slots. However, I reguard specifying the size to the kernel to be more for the purpose of "limiting" resources (such as processes [from the forks] and cpu cycles) than for "allocating" them. As with all implementations, tradeoffs have been made. I feel that one of the "minuses" with the BSD implementation is that not only does the listen cause the arriving SYN to be accepted and bound to a new TCP connection block, but that the protocol machine is also started. Thus a connection may proceed to the ESTABLISHED state and accept/ACKnowledge (usually 4K bytes of) data before the application-level peer (process) is even created. This prevents the process from: 1) examining the IP-address identity of the caller before deciding ACKnowledge the SYN vs. send a RESET, What if X were to place a "collect" call to such an implementation and send 4K data; then the receiver process start up and decides it doesn't want to accept the call. Who pays for the 4K bytes? (The receiver COULD make the 4K available to the appliaction.) 2) checking its routing tables and applying administratively specified per IP-address source routing, etc., 3) selecting initialization parters based on IP-level parameters such as TOS and options, or Maybe local system has a method for setting the TCP MSS (which the spec says has to be in the SYN packet). 4) specifying initial TCP-level options, etc. Charlie

Hello:
I have an implementation I'd like to try and have little idea
about how to go about it. I have a few UNIX boxes , two of which are
CADMUS 9000's . I have Network cards and drivers for these systems.
The cards I have are: 3com ethernet and Excelan EXOS 203 (a pair of each).
What I'd like to know is:
A) Which of these is a better install?
(Ease of install , reliable , versatile ,etc)
B) Can these cards be cheated and how?
( Can they be used point to point without tranceivers
because all I need from them is remote disk mount capability)
C) If these cards can't be cheated , where can I get thin ethernet
tranceivers and equipment for these?
Any help is appreciated - Thank you in advance.....
