Really ? I've been using it for years and haven't noticed this.
Multinet tunnels work just fine most of the time, but Paul is right in that they do abuse
things.
The HECnet bridge, OTOH, crashes regularly. It doesn't seem to recover
gracefully from network hiccups.
Huh? Since it's totally stateless that is weird. Let me know if you actually want me
to look at it. Also, I've never had it crash, but the code is far from pretty, and
depending on compiler and environment, I can believe that there are subtle bugs to be
found.
Don't have a Cisco, so I can't comment on that.
