Forget the bridging junk. Pick an ipaddress, assign it to both interfaces and make sure you configure iptables to FORWARD traffic comming from either side to the other. Additionally you can setup whatever sort of traffic shaping you desire and/or implement a transparent proxy. -- Daniel Egger <egger@spotnic.de>
