Yes, i did try adding one, but it seems to make no difference. tcpdump reports no packets as being dropped by the kernel. They just seem to go nowhere. Adding a LOG rule just before the PREROUTING one shows the SYN is being received, also. BTW, this machine is running kernel 2.6.7, and i'm also using a second "testing" machine, running 2.6.5. Does anyone know if this kind of setup is supposed to be supported at all? regds. -- Damian Gatabria <damian_g@speedy.com.ar> - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
