You could use ping and specify the package size (-s) and that you don't
want fragmentation (-M do):

	ping hostname -s 1464 -M do

Modify the package size so that ping does not output "Frag needed and DF
set". The best setting is one byte less than the one which gets you the
fragmentation message. Add 28 bytes (IP/ICMP-header info) to this size
and you have the optimal MTU setting.
