Correct. This was just the educational example... Pfff, I thought I was going insane.... I had a 2.4.18 kernel talking to a 2.4.20 kernel, except that the 2.4.20 kernel did not reply on the arps... Now to find something soft to bounce my head against (I already have the headache, so I don't want it to hurt extra...). Eh, just curious in how arp depends on routing... I've already seen how neigh/gc_thresh[123] can influence the reachability of a host, and that the routing cache can lock entries in the neigh table while they are being flushed, filling up the neigh table etc... -- mail up 171+00:12, 7 users, load 0.08, 0.20, 0.16 mistar1 up 29+18:16, 17 users, load 0.02, 0.04, 0.00 Let your government know you value your freedom: sign the petition: http://petition.eurolinux.org
