OK, more weird stuff. Running tcpdump on the PC2 br0 interface shows all of the ping packets going out. However, running tcpdump on PC2 eth1 (the interface in forwarding state) shows only the occasional packet leaving (and these always get a reply.) Since PC2 eth2 is in blocking state and it is the only other member of the bridge, where are the other packets going? :-\ -- George Borisov DXSolutions Ltd -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
