Hi Sertys, thanks for your reponse. I doubt that my entire script will help much, but anyway, I attached it (obfuscated a bit, of course :-) Yes, we are using traffic shaping (qdisc), but not RP_filter. The netmask for .240 is find, actually .240 _is_ the router, the router sends echo replies to some other hosts in the DMZ for reasons unknown ... And no, this is no PPP network but a leased line instead.
