I'm wondering if there isn't something else at work here.  Note that at the 
end of the trace, the SCO box sent five segments without getting any 
acknowledgement back from the FreeBSD machine, yet the FreeBSD machine was 
sending back ACK segments mostly normally before.

It *almost* looks to me like the FreeBSD host just stopped sending ACKs for 
some reason, while the SCO box was several packets (window size 5 segments, 
512-byte MSS) into slow-start.  Is it possible that the application on the 
FreeBSD box somehow isn't reading the data out of its socket buffers?

Bruce.
