OK I have sufficient evidence now that my split route ( multipath routing ) is inducing kernel panic and also frequent connection lost. The split route may not be the culprit but I can safely say that without using the split route, my system is perfectly stable. I have set up the split route according to http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html I could use the multipath routing to access the internet ( NAT ). I could also do multipath in-bound port forwarding using netfilter CONNMARK etc etc. The problem I have is that I get frequent connection lost ( like very 20 minutes or so for my connections ) and eventually I will get a kernel panic. Anyone experience the same thing before ? _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
