So, it works?
It works indeed. If folks want me to, I'll provide patches to ip_fastfwd.c after christmas-new-year break. (I have too much stuff on my plate right now) Just to note, the patch will _not_ touch ip_input.c. Receive path should not even exist on a host system, only on a router running hard core routing code (aka ip_fastforward() being the routing code). -J -- James Jun TowardEX Technologies, Inc.
