I thought we went through this.  RFC 1323 extension data streams have SYN 
packets with data in them, at the connection setup.  Annex OS v 9.x 
throws a fit when it sees a TCP packet with SYN set and actual data.  
Traditional TCP connections are setup using SYN/SYN-ACK packets with no 
data payload.

Does SCO support RFC 1323 TCP extensions?
