bridges don't know nothin' about IP. what you are talking is a router. bridges only talk e.g. ethernet (MAC addresses). > Any pointers, hints, greatly appreciated.... kernel 2.2 on the machine: ipchains kernel 2.4 on the machine: iptables have a look at the HOWTOs for ipchains at linuxdoc.org or for iptables at netfilter.samba.org. -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] riesco a leggerti i pensieri. dovresti vergognarti.
