Hi

I believe this subject is important enough to post a message to the list.
This morning I did some tests with the famous teardrop in our network. The
results follow.

        Linux 2.0.24 - reboot
        Linux 2.0.29 - freeze
        Linux 2.0.31 with the pre-32-6 patch - no effects
        Windows 3.11 with MS-TCP/IP - freeze
        Windows 95 - no damage (a miracle?)
        MS-DOS 6.22 with MS-client 3.0 - no effects
        MS-DOS 6.22 with Sun's PC-NFS V 5.1a - no demage

        DU 3.2 - no demage
        ==================

If someone has different results, please report.
