I've done some more troubleshooting and some strange things have 
appeared.  First, the colo says there is NO proxy, and NO firewall in 
front of this server.

I captured a misfire on both the server and on my freebsd gateway.  The 
two traffic flows don't seem to quite line up.

First, here is the view from the server:

This is the very same transaction.  I'm not an expert at TCP/IP, but it 
looks like the server and the client are seeing things quite differently. 

Any additional help in tracking down what is happening is greatly 
appreciated. 

Thanks much!

Jerry
