Hello, I have a weird problem with a GRE tunnel, the setup is as follows; gre0: flags=b051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,LINK0,LINK1,MULTICAST> mtu 1476 tunnel inet 213.67.20.137 --> 194.145.248.113 inet 194.145.248.138 --> 194.145.248.137 netmask 0xfffffffc And I've tried both w/ and w/o the link1 option mentioned in the man page for gre.

I use: FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p5 #3: Sun Apr 18 22:25:17 CEST 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/merltock i386 When google-ing for this problem I found this: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-February/02039 4.html Which seems to be the same problem, can the bug have been brought back afterwards? I hope I didn't miss any info.. I will try upgrading to 5.3-RC1, seems to have been alot of fixes since then, but I'd be glad for any information what might be the cause of this problem. Thanks.
