this message is produced by the kernel, if the log_martians sysctl variable is set to non null: > egrep . /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/log_martians /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/log_martians:2 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/default/log_martians:0 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/log_martians:0 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/lo/log_martians:0 the logging is produced for martian packages, which are packages received on an interface where they do not belong. The kernel notice this, by examining the routing table. You can turn that off with "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/log_martians" but this does not change the problem. You have eighter a wrong routing configuration or somebody is using the wrong ip.
