To get off the (expensive) GPRS net I have reproduced the setup on the LAN: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:4C:71:05:92 inet addr:10.1.12.87 Bcast:10.1.12.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:E0:4C:71:05:91 inet addr:10.1.12.151 Bcast:10.1.12.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 jpo> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/rp_filter 0 jpo> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth1/rp_filter 0 jpo> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth1/log_martians 1 jpo> cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/log_martians 0 Running my program results in: Mar 22 11:00:07 scorpio_1 kernel: martian source 10.1.12.151 from 10.1.12.87, on dev eth1 Mar 22 11:00:07 scorpio_1 kernel: ll header: 00:e0:4c:71:05:91:00:d0:03:6a:f7:fd:08:00 Mar 22 11:00:12 scorpio_1 kernel: NET: 4 messages suppressed.
