if the route for the eth1 NIC IP points to or through the eth0 NIC IP, then this is a logical feature of the TCP/IP stack implementation in linux, which will cause the packet to be accepted without a specific need for ip_forward. so: no problem here, this is proper behaviour. -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] a life? where can i download that?
