Hi, I'd like to test a router using a single linux box with 2 NICs... The problem is that whenever I ping one of the NIC, IP packets go directly to the local "lo" devices and I did not find a way to configure the routes to make it use another the second interface. I've seen a post describing this problem but there was no satisfying answers to it. So is there a way to have it done or not ? May be there can exist a special "ping" utility that allow to define the outgoing interface whatever the kernel says ... Thanks a lot for help :) Eric -- _______________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Have you downloaded the latest calling software from Net2Phone?
