Hi Eric, my messages log says though: "firewall root: Shorewall Stopped"
when I try to ping it gives the following: firewall# ping 192.168.1.254 PING 192.168.1.254 (192.168.1.254): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Invalid argument Tom Citeren Eric Spakman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi Tom, > > Can you ping the bridge interface from the firewall itself? > > I guess shorewall is blocking the ping, because it's probably not setup > for bridging. > > > Eric > > >> extra info down.. >> >> Citeren Tom Hendrickx <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> >> >>> Hallo Eric, >>> >>> >>> Citeren Eric Spakman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >>> >>> >>>> Hello Tom, >>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>>> Ok thanks ..
