The numeric argument to: iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING --jump MARK --set-mark 13 is a decimal number, BUT the argument to "ip" is an hexadecimal number, so to insert a matching "ip rule" you should do: ip rule add fwmark D pref 10000 table whatever NOT ip rule add fwmark 13 pref 10000 table whatever Hope it helps. -- Jose Luis Domingo Lopez Linux Registered User #189436 Debian Linux Woody (Linux 2.4.19-pre6aa1) _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
