Weird... I work as a sysadmin and recently (after starting using the 2.6 
kernel on rh9) on our mailhost we had issues with a certain host ...
They said that their firewall blocked everything when ECN was enabled 
and they wouldnt ever think about disabling it, because of security 
concerns...
Is this really a security issue or just some sysadmin that needs to read 
a bit more about ECN? From what I've read about ECN , it is supposed to 
help...
