An improved method in a data processing system for forwarding network file system requests and responses between network segments. A notice is received that data has arrived at a receive buffer for a socket. The receive buffer is connected for the socket and a send buffer for another socket to form a splice. Both the socket and the other socket are flagged as a spliced connection.

A system and method of responding to a full TCP queue. After a server receives a TCP connection request from a client, the server places the request on an embryonic queue of TCP connection requests sorted by the amount of elapsed time since the server has respond to each respective TCP connection request. When the server attempts to place a new TCP connection request on a full embryonic queue, the host, via the TCP protocol, will remove the entry at the end of the embryonic queue. The last entry, due to the high timer value, is more likely to having performed unsuccessful attempts at completing a connection.

A method in a data processing system for reducing the learning curve of a transmission control protocol connection. A domain name system is queried for information. The information and a previously used transmission control protocol parameter for a transmission control protocol connection are received from the domain name system. The information and the previously used transmission control protocol parameter are used to configure a current transmission control protocol connection.

A network system employs path health information to select an acceptable path between a source node and destination node within an information handling system (IHS) and/or between a source node within one IHS and a destination node within another IHS. One or more switches may connect these two IHSs together. The network system accesses the path health information to determine the availability of paths for communicating between nodes.

Methods, system, and products are disclosed for administering requests for data communications connections in a wide area network that include receiving, according to a data communications protocol, by a receiver from a sender, a request for a data communications connection, wherein the sender has a network address on a sender's network and the receiver has a network address on a receiver's network; characterizing the sender as local with respect to the receiver's network if the sender's network is the receiver's network; characterizing the sender as remote with respect to the receiver's network if the sender's network is not the receiver's network; and responding to the request in dependence upon a value of a location response flag and in dependence upon the characterization of the sender's network with respect to the receiver's network.

Disclosed is a computer implemented method and apparatus to retrieve authentication records required for user validation and creation of authentication credentials from an authentication server to be passed to the user. The method is comprised of the authentication server storing a first authentication record, then generating a first authentication credential based on the first authentication record. The authentication server associates the first authentication record with a first credential expiration time. The authentication server stores a second authentication record. The authentication server generates a second authentication credential based on the second authentication record, wherein the second authentication credential is associated with a second credential expiration time. Next, the authentication server associates the second authentication credential with a second credential expiration time. The authentication server determines that the first credential expiration time is earlier than the second credential expiration time and caches the first authentication record to cache.

A communication system, which facilitates distribution of electronic communications for a user account, includes an emergency auto-reply agent that scans each received communication addressed to the user account for a particular communication sent from at least one emergency address specified for the user account separate from the address of the user account. Responsive to the communication system detecting the particular communication sent from one of the emergency addresses, the emergency auto-reply agent parses the content of the particular communication to detect whether the particular communication comprises a required password. Responsive to detecting the required password within the content of the particular communication, the emergency auto-reply agent directs the communication system to compose and send auto-reply communications from the user account in reply to received communications addressed to the user account.

The reassembly timer in a TCP/IP receiver is dynamically set to avoid data corruption on fast networks caused by IP identification wrap-around. A sender generates IP packets with a special option specifying a reassembly time for fragments based on the subnet of the destination or on the calculated round-trip time of the connection. A receiver sets the reassembly timer to the reassembly time specified in the option. A sender can generate IP packets with an alternative option setting a time stamp for the generated packet. A receiver calculates a traversal time based on the difference between the arrival time of the fragment and this time stamp, and sets the reassembly timer based on this traversal time. A receiver can independently set the reassembly timer to a first reassembly time set by the user for fast networks or to a second reassembly timer set by the user for slow networks based on whether the receiver and sender are on the same subnet.

A method for virtual segmentation off-load in a logically partitioned data processing system is provided. A data transmission protocol stack formats a data message for segmentation off-load to form a virtual segmentation off-load package. The size of the data message is larger than a size of a maximum transmission unit. A partition manager firmware copies the virtual segmentation off-load package from a first logical partition to a virtual Ethernet adapter associated with a second logical partition. The virtual segmentation off-load package is copied without performing a segmentation operation on the data message associated with the virtual segmentation off-load package.

Illustrative embodiments provide a computer implemented method, a data processing system and a computer program product for locating contact information in a mobile phone network within a social network. In one embodiment, the computer implemented method permits reciprocal access between a first user's contact information and a second user's contact information by a first user device and a second user device, and permitting reciprocal access between the second user's contact information and a third user's contact information by the second user device and a third user device. The computer implemented method receives a request from the third user device to contact the first user device, wherein the first user contact information is unknown to the third user and issues a search on the mobile phone network, from the third user device, for the first user contact information. The first user contact information is located at the second user device in the social network, and the first user contact information is returned to the third user device.
