to refresh, the router's addresses are eth0 - 10.1.1.2 and eth1 10.1.5.1 on the router, if I: ping 10.1.1.2 or ping 10.1.5.1 it's fine HOWEVER if i ping -I eth0 10.1.5.1 (ping from eth0 to eth1) it fails or ping -I eth1 10.1.1.2 it also fails i don't actually have anything else plugged into it at this point, trying to iron all this out prior to it going live. However, I just tried the same test (pinging from an eth0 to an eth1) on a iptables-nat-fw box i have. This box forwards packets like nobody's business and is showing the same results that I describe above. Perhaps there is something about ping that doesn't allow you to ping from an interface to an interface?? I always thought you could do that... > > >>From the router, can you sucessfully ping its own interefaces on each > network?
