I have good results, up to a point.  The fragmenting is enabled with the
default values (540/enable/4500/30) but when I try to launch a large payload
packet, we trip over a checksum problem.  Here is a snapshot of what tcpdump
shows me:

Of course, the same site navigation from the same client doesn't have this
problem.

1) Why isn't this getting fragmented?
2) How can I gather better detail to help you chase it?  My server config
(and client, for that matter) is the same as before.

Thanks,
