please CC me I'm not on the list.
Hi,
I need some help with this bug.
I've got two athlon boxes which produce this same problem with all
kernels from 2.4.18-pre4 back to 2.4.0 which is a far as I went.
It seems to be only triggered by a particular string of binary data
which I've narrowed down (it came from a pdf document). which I'll
attach now. its 735 bytes, if I change it or remove a byte it doesn't
cause the problem.
The machines are both athlon 1.1GHZ on ASUS A7V133 mobo's, thats the
only simularitys between them ones scsi the others ide ones a via-rhine
nic and the other is a tulip.

I've tried this with both netcat and rsh, which produce the same
results. I've also tested sending the same string from a solaris box
which results in the same error.
I've also reduce the kernel to a bare minimum of drivers. I can send the
.config if anyone wants it.
The problem does not show its self on the loopback device.
I am willing to put some effort into debugging this if someone can help
me figure out where to start. If there is any other info required let me
know.
Thanks.
