The kernel will normally select an address that is assigned to the outgoing interface.

I have no objection (and I'd be glad to apply a well-written patch that does that), but I don't think this should be necessary. Could you please explain exactly why you need this feature? -- Juliusz _______________________________________________ Babel-users mailing list [email protected] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/babel-users
