How so? Iljitsch is suggesting that ICMP blockers originate packets
without DF set if they are going to block the ICMP messages that PMTUD
needs in order to work in the first place. That's what (I think) he
means by "disabling path MTU discovery."

Which end are you talking about here, the servers or the client? If the
servers, how do you expect them to do PMTUD if they _can't hear the ICMP
messages_?

Also, for some reason, as I pointed out before, XP black hole router
discovery doesn't seem to be working for me for whatever reason. Does
anybody have any clue why that might be the case?
