Here is my issue with ping. When I use -I with ping, the DNS queries for that domain is still sent out with wrong source address through the interface, and hence, no reply. This happens in both WAN interfaces. When I add rules in OUTPUT chain to reroute packets with the unmatching source address and output interface, things work fine.
When I use IP address instead of URL, everything is fine. I have applied Julian's routes patch. What could be the problem? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Rabbitson Sent: Tuesday, June 12, 2007 5:29 PM To: Andrea Cc: lartc@mailman.ds9a.nl Subject: Re: [LARTC] Re: multiple routing tables for internal router programs Andrea wrote: > Very very clear.

Most network testing utilities have this capability in one form or another.By the way if you request an _interface_ and not a specific IP, the first IP of the interface is taken as listed by `ip addr` _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
