sysctl should disable ECN by default
Package: procps
Version: 1:2.0.7-6
Severity: wishlist
Tags: woody
I suggest to disable ECN¹ in the default network configuration.
This should be done in Woody since we don't like our users to be
confused just because of the ECN support in kernel is turned on.
¹ ECN bit causes trouble on bad configured firewalls, so the fresh
installed Debian box won't be able to connect some remote hosts.
Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
