From: Andras Olah <olah at cs.utwente.nl>

T/TCP (TCP for Transactions) is a recent extension of TCP to improve
TCP's performance with applications like the WWW.  T/TCP is part of
FreeBSD since 2.0.5R.  The most recent Volume (nr. 3) of TCP/IP
Illustrated by Richard Stevens covers the working and implementation
of the protocol.  The book is an excellent source to learn the
FreeBSD implementation because the code he uses in the book is
derived from the FreeBSD code.

Rich Stevens also maintains a T/TCP home page at

	http://www.noao.edu/~rstevens/ttcp.html

with further info about T/TCP.  He's also collecting a list of sites
out on the net which use T/TCP.  If you run some public services on
your FreeBSD machine and you didn't disable T/TCP
(tcp_extensions=YES is in your /etc/sysconfig), then you may
consider sending him a note about your site.

Andras Olah (maintainer of the FreeBSD T/TCP implementation)
