Hi All,

I am issueing a telnet command in my embedded system to another machine, the kernel sends SYN command, then receives a SYN Ack then it does nothing.
The telnet, after a while, prints that it is unable to connect to the server.

Which function in the kernel source tree is called, when a SYN Ack packet is received ? (in the TCP stack)
and which function calls it ?

p.s. I can see from tcpdump that the packet really received to the kernel, which means that the device driver is working fine !

I'm using kernel 2.4-test11 (PowerPC version)

Regards,
Rabeeh
