No, not at all. In fact they are complementary and work beautifully together. T/TCP and the replacement are about cutting the extra round-trip times for the three-way handshake of TCP. accept_filter is sort of a buffer that defers readablility to userland until a full request has been received (a HTTP/1.1 request for example). -- Andre _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
