"What problem are you trying to solve?" The scale factor is *ONLY* a means to increase the maximum possible receive window size. It doesn't matter if the scale factor is changed if the actual advertised receive window is the same. > It seems the > only significantly value for net.inet.tcp.rfc1323 is 0 (disabled) vs. non-0 > (ws=0). Am I missing something? You'll never see a scale size larger than zero unless the involved program sets a socket receive buffer size larger than 64KB before calling listen() or connect(), that being the value from which the receive window size is derived.
