On 18 Jun, this message from Alan Cox echoed through cyberspace: >> Are you sure you're not running a 2.4 kernel with ECN (Explicit >> Congestion Notification) turned on? Or Bill has it on on his server? >> >> This 'feature' has randomly prevented lots of people from accessing >> various sites.... > > Its an IETF standard. If it causes problems the other site is broken, and there > are actually very few problems sites now that cisco fixed their code. I didn't imply anything different.
