Does the Wiki page on configuring a (non-Shorewall) bridge help at all? http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/leaf/index.php?title=Bering-uClibc_4.x_-_User_Guide_-_Advanced_Topics_-_Setting_Up_a_Bridge This page is heavily based on the previous (3.x ?) bridge DocBook page, but I claim I tested it and it works OK. Might have some clues to help you… If there is an alternative bridge approach which uses Shorewall it would be good to expand the Wiki page to cover that too (once we get it working :-) ). dMb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cloud Services Checklist: Pricing and Packaging Optimization This white paper is intended to serve as a reference, checklist and point of discussion for anyone considering optimizing the pricing and packaging model of a cloud services business.
