'Bad packet length' is coming from ssh (packet.c:packet_read_poll2()) and (as Yar suggested) is related to SSH's own packetisation, rather than TCP. The reported packet length is the 'd475 078f' immediately above. Note that at this stage, SSH has not negotiated encryption so working thru a tcpdump output is still practical. I suspect that there's a problem with the packet sizes. >> > Yeah it's what the Linux driver is called. Can be something else, got a >> > better name? :) >> >> Perhaps just "jn"?

Since we already have 4-character interface names (eg vlan), and there will never be more than one of these, I'd prefer to leave it as jnet. There are a limited number of 2-letter combinations and 4 letters is more descriptive. (I would far prefer that "vlan" be truncated to something shorter so that my daily reports don't have 48 lines stating 'vlan1'). -- Peter Jeremy
