Keywords: programimng Message-ID: <6515@acdhq.north.de> Date: 27 Feb 91 12:07:03 GMT Distribution: comp Organization: ACD Advanced Computer Design GmbH Lines: 20 Hi! Sending a SYN advances the sequence number by one since it must be ACKed. A FIN is ACKed, too, so does it advanced the sequence number? I browsed through RFC761 but found nothing which tells me. :-( "Is there anybody out there" (who knows about it) ? greetings, Kai -------------------- Kai Bartels | kaba@acdhq.UUCP | The sound of bombs Hudemuehler 37 | kaba@acdhq.north.de | Has given way to childrens cries D-2800 HB 41 | G14B@DHBRRZ41.BITNET | (0421)34636-13 |g14b@sie.rz.uni-bremen.de|------------------------------ bang: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!cbmehq!cbmger!acdhq!kaba -- -------------------- ACD Advanced Computer Design GmbH |acdhq.uucp |Networks Dammweg 15 | Tel.: (+49) (0) 421 34636-0| | and D2800 Bremen 1 | Fax : (+49) (0) 421 3499518|...!cbmvax!cbmger!acdhq| more!
