I cannot really imagine how this would happen, but if youre worried,
this can be increased. Please note however that increased buffers also
mean increased data loss in case of disconnection.
What happens way more often (in fact its almost common) is the transmit
buffer overflow. thats due to the affected station having too slow a
network connection (eg. GPRS). Please note that in addition to all the
tunnel server buffers, there is another 128k TCP network buffer...

Trust the computer industry to shorten "Year 2000" to Y2K.  It was this kind
of thinking that caused the problem in the first place.
