Important: these files were generated with the HTB patches applied. Here are botch tcpdump files: http://www.abusar.org/htb/dump-mail-server.log http://www.abusar.org/htb/dump-mail-client.log Both readmibs: http://www.abusar.org/htb/readmibs-server.txt http://www.abusar.org/htb/readmibs-client.txt Here are both cat /proc/net/tcp: http://www.abusar.org/htb/tcp-server.txt http://www.abusar.org/htb/tcp-client.txt I use the following to generate those dumps: 1) on the server: tcpdump -s 0 -w dump-mail-server.log -i eth0 host 201.52.214.230 2) on the client: tcpdump -s 0 -w dump-mail-client.log -i eth0 host teleporto.abusar.org and port 995 What happened? 1) the connection was stalled 2) these tcpdumps are the *best ones* I got because although I started them with the connection already stalled, the connection suddenly is not stalled anymore, and a few minutes later was stalled again... 3) I keep tcpdump running for more time Ps: anyway I could notice that the only two services that remain stalled is nntp, ftp, pop3 and smtp... http is never stalled, neither ssh. It seems to affect only "old" protocols :) Ps2: anyway, the htb patch seems to help, because the problem took much longer to happen. With htb patches the problem happens one time a day. Without the htb patches the problem happens more than one time a day. Ps3: I really doesn't understand why "nmap -sS server" "solves" the stalled connection issue. Ps4: sorry for my hurry feedback before. I thought the problem had gone. Anyway, I hope this time I provided the best data for you.
