I have added -d switch to ipmasq call in /etc/ipmasq to disable rules calculating and found that all works fine. There is another question. Sourcing the files in /etc/ipmasq/rules cause the alias name eth0:0 to be changed ( ? ) to eth0_0 which is unknown. As a result anything is rejected on eth0:0. Do I actually need to modify ( write new ) rules in /etc/ipmasq/rules ?
