No disagreement here - it could certainly break in the future, and is certainly not a solution anyone should rely on. However my reading of this is that it would have worked the same way like 20 years ago, so it’s probably not imminently at risk of working differently tomorrow.
- q3k 7y agoI'm not so sure. It's one `mtu 150` fatfinger away from potentially breaking again.
- jchw 7y agoI think mtu 150 would be noticeable quicklier than this fairly rare bug :) and probably any MTU short enough to cause a problem here probably. At least for busy servers, I’d expect to be very puzzled about a sudden dramatic uptick in network and probably CPU usage. Edit: and it would probably break DNS as well.
