Is that correct?
Yes. Actually the problem is between lines 3 and 4. Sending to 66.anything except 66.159.230.0/24 will try to send the packet directly. It will arp for the MAC address of 66.anything and not get a reply. It will then return an error to the sender. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
