could this be a dependent problem from the kernel fedora is using? i know there have been some issues with some kernels versions...

You should probably ask the Fedora people how to get the IP stack to add
an IP ID (assuming the Darwin Streaming Server isn't doing something
weird such as using a raw socket and constructing its own IP headers).

I was surprised when I saw your trace, but, when I looked at RFC 791, it
didn't seem to prohibit leaving the IP ID as 0 for packets with "don't
fragment" set, and the only thing RFC 1122 says about the identification
field is
When sending an identical copy of an earlier datagram, a host MAY
optionally retain the same Identification field in the copy.
so there's nothing I can see that would require that, even for packets
with "don't fragment" set, packets not all be given the same ID value.
