It seems to be selecting the correct route using the marks as iptables
reports the correct interface in the log files.
However the packet then goes out of a different interface.
Show us all firewall and routing rules (at least the main)...
    iptables -t mangle -nL -v
    ip rule ls
I'm out of the office at the minute but will extract them later today.
This has always worked before, the default route is in the main table (maybe
not clear before) and is used so that
the box can route local packets out. Your example (below) would do the same
except skip the fwmark rules
Not exactly. In my example, to skip the fwmark process the destination
address must be known by the main table. And you dont need to treat
your essential routes in alternative tables (only default gw). For
this reason,  you couldnt use a default gw in main table (*my
example*).
Ok, misread that and still had a default in main in my head. Makes sense now
But, i still not sure why your setup has stopped working.
Neither do I? The only thing I can think of is a new kernel inadvertently installed by a colleague but without doing a reboot. As it all worked fine until it was rebooted (to physically move it). Also, oddly before I left last night, it was occasionally connecting when doing some tests

Yes, sorry when doing the example missed off the -m state --state NEW bit...
I still find it strange that recently packets I'd expect to be in the NEW
state are ESTABLISHED. eg doing
ping blah
ping blah
results in the first outgoing packet being NEW, but the second ping is
ESTABLISHED, surely this is a bug?
Why you need to work with connection STATEs in firewall MARKs?
I guess I don't need to, I wanted to only mark new connections and the use save-mark and restore-mark to mark further packets. The plan is that each new connection is marked using the statisic module and routed based on the mark.

It still seems like a bug that subsequent independent connections are labelled as ESTABLISHED?
Tell me more about your configuration.
I can check your firewall confs if you open your ssh access for me
(send me account in pvt - if you like).
I may well do if I can't sort it quickly
