It doesn't work for NAT connections. So, the result is the same, as the configuration I was trying is the same, which is set in the script you gave. :) > > Can u please explain how u have applied the patch . I have not applied the patch in the configuration I'm trying to get working :) So, by now, I don't use that patch. I explain howI think the multipath routing + NAT doesn't work, in a mail I just sent. :) But as there I explained how I understand that nothing may work without patches (in the mail sent to the list, before this one), I'll start trying with the patches applied. I applied them to a vanilla kernel by: cd /usr/src/linux patch -p1 < the_patch.diff This results in changing some files, as expected. So the patching should be well done.
