ICNP deals with all aspects of communication protocols, from design and specification, to verification, testing, performance analysis, and implementation. Protocol functions of interest include network access, switching, routing, flow and congestion control, multimedia transport, wireless and mobile networks, network security, web protocols and applications, electronic commerce, network management, interoperability, internetworking, home computing and networks and digital broadcasting. ICNP 2001 will be held in Riverside, California, at the Mission Inn, a place filled with history. Riverside is located in the Sunny Southern California, 60 miles from Los Angeles, 45 miles from Palm Springs and 40 miles from Disney Land. The city is served by three nearby airports: Los Angeles, Ontario (California) and Orange County Airport.

Would it be correct to treat an MSS of 0 as the default 536? Any advice?

I'd be inclined to treat it as if the MSS value was not there, and possibly to log it (rate limited of course) since it might indicate other problems to come.

It basically says "speak in 0 > length chunks". Is it possible that these sites don't *want* to talk to you? Small MSS is a pretty standard setup for a teergrube (port-scan honeypot). Setting it to 0 would not be something I'd do, since it'd make the intention too obvious, but maybe these are overly-aggressively- configured teergrubes. regards, tom lane From owner-tcp-impl@grc.nasa.gov Fri Aug 31 14:54:35 2001 Received: from seraph2.grc.nasa.gov (firewall-user@seraph2.lerc.nasa.gov [128.156.10.11]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id OAA13680 for ; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 14:54:34 -0400 (EDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by seraph2.grc.nasa.gov (8.10.2+Sun/8.10.2) id f7VIttI05226 for ; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 14:55:55 -0400 (EDT) Received: from lombok-fi.lerc.nasa.gov(139.88.112.33) by seraph2.grc.nasa.gov via csmap (V6.0) id srcAAAvvaink; Fri, 31 Aug 01 14:55:55 -0400 Received: (from listserv@localhost) by lombok-fi.lerc.nasa.gov (NASA LeRC 8.9.1.1/8.9.1) id OAA13079 for tcp-impl-outgoing; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 14:39:12 -0400 (EDT) Received: from seraph2.grc.nasa.gov (firewall-user@guardian02.lerc.nasa.gov [139.88.146.11]) by lombok-fi.lerc.nasa.gov (NASA LeRC 8.9.1.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id OAA13073 for ; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 14:39:11 -0400 (EDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by seraph2.grc.nasa.gov (8.10.2+Sun/8.10.2) id f7VIdAE02322 for ; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 14:39:10 -0400 (EDT) Received: from ted.see.plymouth.ac.uk(141.163.49.40) by seraph2.grc.nasa.gov via csmap (V6.0) id srcAAAK4aiIe; Fri, 31 Aug 01 14:39:10 -0400 Received: from mail pickup service by ted.see.plym.ac.uk with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Fri, 31 Aug 2001 19:33:44 +0100 From: "INC2002" To: Subject: INC2002 Call for Papers - July 2002 Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 19:33:44 +0100 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 Message-ID: <003264433181f81TED@ted.see.plym.ac.uk> Sender: owner-tcp-impl@grc.nasa.gov Precedence: bulk ************************************************************************** * [Our apologies if you receive multiple postings of this CfP] Please find enclosed the CfP for the Third International Network Conference If you would like to be removed from this mailing list, please use the following URL: http://www.plymouth.ac.uk/inc2002/ Or, you can email us at postmaster@jack.see.plymouth.ac.uk with the subject INC2002 REMOVE ************************************************************************** * ============ INC 2002 ============ Third International Network Conference Call for Papers 16-18 July 2002, Plymouth, United Kingdom http://www.plymouth.ac.uk/inc2002 Invitation to INC 2002 ====================== We invite you to participate in the International Network Conference 2002 to be held in Plymouth, UK, from 16-18th July 2002. This conference, the third in a series of such events, will bring together leading figures from both academia and industry to present and discuss the latest advances in networking technologies from both research and commercial perspectives. The first event, INC ‘98, was held in Plymouth in 1998, attracting an international audience and papers on a wide range of topics. This success was continued with INC 2000, with delegates attending from 18 countries. Feedback from conference delegates at both events was extremely positive and it is intended that INC 2002 will be similarly successful. The 2002 conference will again take place in the historic city of Plymouth, on the south-west coast of England. The event will be held over three days, encompassing presentations delivered by researchers from across the international community. Social events and a conference banquet will also take place, giving an opportunity to exchange state of the art results and advances in both formal and informal settings. The conference is co-sponsored by the Institution of Electrical Engineers, the British Computer Society, Orange Personal Communications Services Limited, MCB University Press (Emerald), and the international journal Internet Research. You are warmly invited to participate in this conference and we look forward to welcoming you to INC 2002.
