It appears you have overlooked both of John Sullivan's postings on this (both more recent than mine). > $IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 172.25.239.220/27 -j DNAT > --to-destination 11.0.0.16 > $IPTABLES -t nat -A OUTPUT -d 172.25.239.220/27 -j DNAT --to-destination > 11.0.0.16 You have specified an inappropriate combination of address and netmask with 172.25.239.220/27 - the address 220 is not the base address of a /27 range, and it is possible (I am not certain) that this combination is confusing netfilter. The /27 range within which address .220 falls is 172.25.239.192 (the braodcast address is 172.25.239.223), so firstly, try specifying that as your address range and see if it helps. Secondly, do you really mean that you want all packets addressed to anywhere within the /27 range to be redirected instead to 11.0.0.16? That is a valid rule, but seems like a slightly strange requirement. Regards, Antony. -- "Linux is going to be part of the future.
