thanks
as to Michael Brown's posting...
SHould I expect a standard 100Mbps switch (eg Netgear) to drop
large MTU packets?
I was going to try it locally at first, and then between two boxes
connected by a cross-over cable, to at least see if it was practical.
After that I was going to deal with the switch problem.
