Network problem, box sending tcp flags SWE on SYN.....

[Alwyn Schoeman <alwyns@prism.co.za>]

Hi,

I have this problem where my box cannot talk through a pix firewall which 
allows everything through, but can talk to any box on the local network.  On 
closer investigation with tcpdump it appears that it initiates tcp 
communication using flags SWE (WE is unknown to me).  Local machines tend to 
ignore that, but I think the pix doesn't.  I get an RWE back and then nothing 
happens....

Anyone know how this can be fixed?

Thanx

The Internet will destroy the barriers that are isolating people
 from decent opportunities based on where they happened to have been born, 
and this will be a fundamental transformation of our global society that will 
greatly discomfort a lot of worthless people. Then those same worthless people
 will create new barriers based on access to source code, licenses, 
software permissions, etc. Sigh.
