    done, but nothing changes. I have also tried different combinations of
    MTU sizes and enabling/disabling pmtu.

    Reading about pmtu problems (I am a programmer, so I am learning a lot
    of things) I have seen that is usually considered an error to disable
    icmp leaving PMTU enabled. The server machine I need to talk to has
    NOT disabled icmp, but it doesn't ping, so I presume it's the firewall
    blocking icmp.

    All this doesn't explain why my iMac is happy with every combination
    of MTU/pmtu I tried on the server, and my linus box is conversely
    unhappy with all of them :(
