How true. But how do I fix it then? Basically, I want a quick fix / MTU change
that I can use until I can rebuild the Kernel.

The problem is I can not reproduce the error. We only have a small number of
non
technical customers who are having trouble, but I can only go so far when it
comes to asking them to debug our services.
I am curious, the IP tunnel is created by the realserver. Am I correct in
assuming the MTU reduction needs to be done on only the real servers? I have
now set the MTU for all the interfaces on the director to 1500 and the MTU for
the IP tunnels to 1400.
If this works then problem solved. If it doesn't then I will have to think
again.
If this is horribly wrong then please tell me. Another thing I am curious about
though.
What makes it fail on some machines and not others when posting exactly the
same
data? Does it have anything to do with the length of the ip address?
i.e. 194.104.106.155 will fail but, 80.7.35.16 will work?
Very strange. Anyways, thanks for the input guys. At least I know its not a
database problem!
