Below are three examples of tcpdump complaining about truncated-ip, whatever that is. Is this a problem? It doesn't seem to impact my connection negatively. I am getting these when using a plain-vanilla openssh client to connect to an ssh-1.2.27 server. inbetween:~# tcpdump -i eth1 | grep truncated tcpdump: listening on eth1 01:45:30.454190 truncated-ip - 10 bytes missing!velius.chaos2.org.ssh > c392100-a.crvlls1.or.home.com.64080: P 3169:3433(264) ack 1580 win 32120 <nop,nop,timestamp 29956970 1187150> (DF) 01:45:40.501069 truncated-ip - 186 bytes missing!velius.chaos2.org.ssh > c392100-a.crvlls1.or.home.com.64080: P 5809:6249(440) ack 2840 win 32120 <nop,nop,timestamp 29957969 1188151> (DF) 01:45:42.327067 truncated-ip - 274 bytes missing!velius.chaos2.org.ssh > c392100-a.crvlls1.or.home.com.64080: P 6337:6865(528) ack 3120 win 32120 <nop,nop,timestamp 29958151 1188333> (DF) Thanks, -Jacob -- "Heh.
