Please help, I'm tearing my hair in desperation. I have a linux router with 4 interfaces that has some ip masquerading stuff to do and also some normal packet routing and some tunnels (ip_gre) The problem is that right after start the value in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_always_defrag start to float, like the contents is aleator garbage no matter what kernel I tried. (from 2.2.14 to 2.2.17pre10 ). cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_always_defrag gives me everything fom -6200 to 12000 :( Also I belive that cause the clients on the end of the tunnels not to teceive correctly some pages like www.hp.com and I belive that also interfere with the maqueraded clients. If you can please help, if is needed I'll post more info (btw the distro is a Mandrake 7) Mircea C. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu
