(I reordered these replies to put them in top-down order) This doesn't add up. If you've put a 1 in ip_forward, catting it should give you back a 1, not a 0. A clean way to make this happen every time networking is enabled is to open up /etc/network/options and make sure you have a line that says "ip_forward=yes" . Then /etc/init.d/networking will do the cat for you every time it brings up the networking systems. -- Vineet http://www.anti-dmca.org Unauthorized use of this .sig may constitute violation of US law. echo Qba\'g gernq ba zr\! |tr 'a-zA-Z' 'n-za-mN-ZA-M'
