LS,
Just noticed something strange, maybe someone could explain to me.
The following happend to me recently; I was reading my mail though
a ssh connection on another machine. The machine I was reading
from is a notebook running linux-2.1.129. After some reading,
a TV program started which I wanted to watch, so without
thinking I suspended the notebook to keep the noice of the HD down....
Now for the strange part; after some 50 minutes orso, the TV
program ended, I pressed a button on the notebook, and presto...
The mailreader responded immediately...
HOW???? The notebook was suspended, how could the TCP stack
on the mailmachine possible received acks? Or is the TCP/IP
timeout that long?????
Met vriendelijke groet,
Pauline Middelink
