Hi,
My kernel is reporting:
borco-ei kernel: 133.87.240.13 sent an invalid ICMP error to a
broadcast.
What and how bad is this ?
A machine has told your machine a different route to go through, but it
isn't allowed to do this to a broadcast packet. Check that the netmask on
the router and your machine match (use ifconfig). If they do then either
ignore it or complain :-)
At work I get so many of these messages I comment out the offending printk
in /usr/local/src/linux/net/ipv4/icmp.c
