I seem to be having a really strange problem, although I'm sure it's something obvious. I was writing a simple program to verify if POP mailuser accounts exist on a server. When I specify the localhost as the server to connect to, everything works fine. However, if I specify a remote server I can't connect.
I took a network trace and the TCP SYN packets being sent have a bad TCP checksum. I figured I must be doing something wrong in my code so I downloaded the pop-perl5 program from CPAN. It has the same problem! I can telnet from this system to another POP server (on port 110) just fine. All other network activity works fine. I tried the pop perl program on another similarly setup system with the same results. My configuration (for both systems) is: mostly up to date debian 1.1 Linux kernel 2.021 perl 5.003 I assume this problem must be with my perl setup. Any help is greatly appreciated.
