TCP vulnerability: cancel red alert Posted Apr 22, 2004 23:04 UTC (Thu) by junkio (subscriber, #5743) [Link] David S. Miller says on the lkml "Anyone who recommends responding to a RST packet, does not understand TCP very well."
Responding to RST Posted Apr 23, 2004 14:54 UTC (Fri) by rfunk (subscriber, #4054) [Link] "Anyone who recommends responding to a RST packet, does not understand TCP very well." I agree, so I don't understand why the IETF and Cisco people are pushing this "fix". Why do the Linux (and OpenBSD) people see this as a bad idea but not the Cisco people?
