Hi,=0A=0AI seem to have problem with one particular client that is unable t=
o access AFS. When tcpdumping both sides I can see the server sends some pa=
ckets that are 1488B long and non of these ever arrives to the client so th=
is points out to a MTU problem (verified with ping).=0A=0AIs there a way to=
 work this around on the client's side? This is just a single client suffer=
ing so don't want to decrease the MTU on all the servers just because of on=
e client. And decreasing it just on the client side doesn't make any differ=
ence.=0A=0Athanks,=0AAntony.
