I was testing my OSR5 servers to see if they were vulnerable to the
fragmented ping bug; one of them was not affected, while one of them
rebooted both times I tried it. Both servers are running on Compaqs,
and both have net100 applied. The only difference between them that I
can think would matter here is the network adapters. The one that's
not affected is using the Compaq built-in adapter with Compaq's driver,
while the one that reboots is using an SMC 8013EWC with the
OSR5-supplied driver. The Compaq driver requires a 4096 byte
STRMAXBLK; could using that value on the other system fix the problem?
