Hi,


p3490.htt is running vsftp on Centos 5.2, only listening on IPv6.
nc4010.htt (also running Centos 5.2) can connect to it with gftp over IPv6 (p3490's IPv6 address in in /etc/hosts).
I start hipd and hipfw (in userspace: -Aid) on both systems (I do not restart vsftp on p3490). 

I start gftp on nc4010 with: hipconf run normal gftp
I connect to p3490.htt and I see the HIP exchange and a number of ESP packets going. In gftp's log window I see a message about requesting the dir listing, but nothing happens. A Segmentation fault message occurs in the terminal window where I ran hipconf, and gftp crashes.
I try again, and I don't even get that far. Log window shows Trying the HIT (which I saw the first time), but nothing more.
So once more I am stymied. Perhaps my problems are HIP userspace related. Definitely that directory listing would have used full MTUs.
I was distraced from the MTU issues by some other project issues. I believe we HIT some MTU issues also with the LSI code. Continuing work on MTUs again...
