Hi list, I want a strange thing :) I have a box with NATed eth0 interface. For some reason I need to send packets from the box with source addresses from 127.0.0.0/8 net. When I try ping -I 127.0.0.2 'somewhere' I get "sendmsg: Invalid argument". But when I use: ifconfig lo:0 10.0.0.0/24 and ping -I 10.0.0.254 'somewhere' it works fine. I understand that 127.0.0.0/8 is treated as a special net but is there any way to send packets with source IP from this subnet? -- Best regards Anatoly Muliarski -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
