Re: New TCP sequence number generation algorithm; review needed

1.  It is a misnomer to refer to "shared secret" in RFC 1948.  The
secret is not shared with any entity.
2.  Implying that because DES can be brute-forced that MD5 can be
brute-forced is just silly.  Yes, in another 100 years, if Moore's
Law continues to hold, which is unlikely.

Suggestion - write an internet-draft and get the end2end group
to endorse your scheme, rather than commiting FreeBSD to it.
