You're right, 192.168.1.15 is houba.
The faulty behaviour comes back today, I did new captures on
192.168.1.15 only : 
http://www.starox.org/pub/scp_stall/scp_stall-houba.2.pcap
http://www.starox.org/pub/scp_stall/scp_stall-houba.2.proc_net_tcp
http://www.starox.org/pub/scp_stall/scp_stall-houba.3.pcap
http://www.starox.org/pub/scp_stall/scp_stall-houba.3.proc_net_tcp

Which tool do you use to analyze /proc/net/tcp ?
