Hello. Uh. Seems you didnt read whole email? This is generaly a fix for wrong src addr in policy routing: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16216 While using iptables MARK and ip rule fwmark works for forwarded packets, this breaks localy generated packets making them routed correctly but having wrong src addr. This is because kernel first lookups routing table to get src addr and then pass packet to netfilter. In that stage is too late to do policy routing for localy generated packets. This should be fixed, but unfortunately its not easy. Regards, Borg PS: Does IPSET have any mailing list or contacts? I couldnt find them.. Thats why I mailed netfilter-devel. ---------- Original message ---------- From: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: borg@xxxxxxx Cc: netfilter-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Patch using ipset match in policy routing.

I don't think "this way there's no need to mark" is enough.
