Although the specific reference supplied was not the issue, you pointed me close enough to the answer that I found it. The article you mentioned showed how to set one of thewin_scaling parameters. While looking around in /proc/sys/net/ipv4 I found a file named tcp_ecn which contained the value "1" I changed it to "0" using the echo command in the article and that fixed the problem I was having with the site www.galottery.com.
Thanks for the assist! Greg Guldenschuh

setup:
FC system is firewall to Cable Modem and I use it for some browsing.
FC system NATs internal network at home to address attached to cable modem.
Issue:
When I use ANY browser from the FC system to go to www.galottery.com, the
server responds with a TCP reset and the connection is terminated. While on
the FC system I have noticed that the TCP option flags CWR and ECN are set.
Using any browser on any system on internal network, including any browser on an
internal FC system, the connection is set up WITHOUT the CWR and ECN flags set.
All these connections go through.
