Hi all,

I had downloaded a file from a FTP server and capture
the transfer using ethereal. I was confused to see
that on my side (client) I had issued 11 dupacks for a
missing segment before the server finally retransmit. 
I always thought by default, it will be 3 dupacks to
trigger retransmission? I hope anyone can explain this
to me. The server OS is Windows XP Pro SP2 and client
OS is Windows XP Home SP2.

Best regards.
