-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I am running a portmaster for dialup customers. This portmaster has a T1 connected to it, and is the gateway to the internet. Behind it I have a class C network divided up into 4 subnets, netmask 255.255.255.192 or /26. One of the subnets is behind my linuxbox (the 192 network). The portmaster is running rip(1), so I installed routed on the linux box, and configured it to share its information. ie. EXPORT_GATEWAY="no" SILENT="no" When I start routed, the appropriate routes show up in the portmaster after about a 30 seconds, and all works good for about 2 1/2 minutes. Then the portmaster sets the Metric to 16 for the route to my subnet behind the firewall, and routing quits working. If I restart routed, we will repeat the process. If I stop routed during the 2 1/2 mins, it will immediately set the Met to 16. This tells me that they are communicating because when I shut routed down the metric is set to 16. But why does this happen exactly at 2 1/2 min?? I am quite confused? Any suggestions would be great. - -- Regards Joseph Watson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9lesTABydhMNsDgMRAuZzAKCDKkKGviW6PYX4YxDyTfyzikNhHQCeLiSz +cONh6fjWlgOY4eirljT0CI= =vgXh -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
