Does anyone know if this indicates a kernel bug, or could it just be the result of someone sending me IP packets that don't conform to the standard?
Steve I have found a patch that seems to deal with this bug (which appeared in Kernel 2.4.20 and later) It is indeed to do with unset ACK's and It's in the Debian Sparc mailing lists of all places !
Apparently it will apply to 2.4.20 or later (including 2.5.x) so maybe it's worth a go
