        I think, I found a NAT problem in LVS for 2.4 when
the net driver support hardware checksuming but it seems it is
at another place. The difference between the e100 driver and the
normal kernel driver is that e100 supports hardware checksuming.

        Are there other LVS users that have NAT problems in latest
2.4 kernels when the rx checksuming is in effect? For example, 3com
cards? The effect is that LVS reports incoming or outgoing TCP checksum
failures. For now, I'm not sure who to suspect, may be these drivers do
wrong checksum calcs not in the chip and report CHECKSUM_HW. We will
see what Jeremy will report for the patch I sent him yesterday.
