Description Arnold Miller 2005-08-13 21:10:10 UTC

I had the Path MTU Discovery problem for quite a while, even though I read this
guide fairly throughly.  My issue is in the heading Debugging, which I generally
take to mean "Steps to take to isolate and identify a bug for fixing."

I think that the Path MTU Discovery issue should be placed ABOVE Useful Tools,
and the heading changed to Troubleshooting (less of a coding word).


For the IPTables command set, since the reader must mentally replace all eth1
with ppp0 if on DSL, why not just have a line at the top:

# Replace this with ppp0 if on DSL
export WAN=eth1

and just use $WAN in place of eth1 in the rest?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.

renamed Debugging section and change the eth0/eth1 to LAN/WAN
