Looking at a packet capture I see initial handshake SYN ACK packets received, and nothing else. I send a SYN, get a SYN ACK, send an ACK and then send a HTTP GET. The GaTech server never seems to get the ACK, and keeps sending the SYN ACK in reply to the seq. 0 SYN while I send HTTP GET retransmissions. I've attached the packet capture, though I'm not sure if that's the preferred method with the Debian email-based bugtracker. Please note the first packet is superfluous and caused by me killing a hung wget (Note the source port numbers). It does, however, show that my TCP stack thinks it has initiated and tries to close the connection. This appears to be tarpit behavior. The TCPtraceroute leads me to believe the tarpit is on the GATech side, not the RackSpace side. Do you agree?
