Hi all, I know that this question has been asked several times and I have gone through the archieves before posting it here unsuccessfully. I have two NIC's one having public IP and the other private IP. eth0: 202.x.y.z eth1: 10.0.0.1 System Environments: Linux OS - 2.4.20 iptables - 1.2.8 The problem is that the moment I enable ip_forward, the "Neighbour Table Overflow" starts and the same stops when I disable ip_forward. I am also running my mail server on 10.0.0.2. I have setup port forwarding on my Linux gatewat and this works fine the moment ip_forward is enabled. I have checked my localhost settings as suggested by many and is fine. I have also tried using older kernel (2.4.14) along with arpd but the problem still exists. Any help will be a greate help. Thanks in advance for any help Regards, Srikanth __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo. http://search.yahoo.com
