I am baffled by the behaviour of a M$ application (IIS) on a customer network. This network is a hub and spoke structure built with Bering glibc routers. Some of the locations use DSL, others cable modem. The spokes are IPSEc connections to the hub network. In The hub network there is a IIS server with a WEB application. A client system on one of the client networks requests a page (or rather a web based application) on the server. I can observe the normal packet flow between client and server until....the server tries to send a packet of size 1452 bytes to the client (with DF bit set). I _believe_ IPSEC decides that this packet is too large to be passed to the other side so the Bering system sends an ICMP fragmentation needed package to the server with a size proposal of 1319 bytes. I would expect the server to reduce the packet size accordingly but helas it does not. Am I just naive to expect M$ to follow or is it compulsory only to respect ICMP?
