The less precise answer, path MTU discovery breaks, is just fine.
Precisely! and if I understand correctly, a non-techinical person within HR is expected to hear this answer and relay it to you? That is more than a long shot. Unless of course they have photographic memories, are great typists or perhaps do "short hand".
So I get a garbled answer about disk fragmentation. I can't tell the difference between an answer garbled in transit and an answer that was flat wrong to begin with? The point of the question is to help me decide which people I want to spend half an hour on the phone with and which ones get a polite thank-you-not-it from HR while I do the parts of my job that don't involve interviewing folks. If there's any doubt about whether they belong in the not-it category, they proceed to the phone interview. Regards, Bill Herrin P.S. Yes, I got an answer about "degrading DNS port unreachables and MTU disk fragmenting as well." I asked HR to set up a phone interview. If that wasn't an HR garble, I *really* want to hear the explanation. :D -- William D. Herrin ................ herrin@dirtside.com bill@herrin.us 3005 Crane Dr. ......................
