Harris <webid@xxxxxxxxxx> SLH> Thanks for the suggestion. ifconfig reports the MTU as 1500 with both kernels, so as far as I can tell from the Fedora end, that's not the problem. Is there somewhere else I should check it? The filtering bridge drops ICMP (some Windows worm was creating major ping storms a year or so ago), so running ping from here doesn't do anything. But I'll check with the computing facility staff tomorrow to make sure 1500 is ok. George
