Hi people, I have a problem with the function setsockopt and I don't know what to do. I'ma using Red Hat 8.0 with the kernel version 2.4.18-14. The fact is that I try to change the MSS value with the command: ... int val=530; int siz=sizeof(int) setsockopt(socket,6,TCP_MAXSEG,&val,siz); ... And it seems to work when I ask for the parameter value with de getsockopt. But, when I capture the traffic frames with tcpdump and I look at the negotiated MSS value at the SYN frame for the connection I realise that it's 1460. And I also see that the lenght of the rest of packets is as maximum 1460 too. Someone knows how to check if the setsockopt function is working properly? Setsockopt doesn't give me any error. Thanks to everybody!!!
