Maybe it would be worth of to write it again :) Cause this problem still exists on the list (does the people asking read the archives?, solution was published Oct 2003 by me, and I think it wasn't the first one) > First of all the load balance DOESN´T work without the Julian > Anastasov route patch.

Yeah, and the lines with append prohibit default and correct routing of packets with already defined source address is the most important thing.
