Again, please do *not* enable forwarding in your package. People installing a *router* are supposed to know that it has to be enabled, it has been needed on Linux systems since day one. It should not be unconditionally enabled by default on all interfaces because it may not be appropriate to enable it on some of them, and then there would be no easy way to disable it where needed. -- ciao, Marco
