Hi

I reported in an earlier email that I had got ICMP working via dummy last
rule to get round bug and 2 rules to allow appropriate rules (as detailed
in below email). It worked for at least a day or so.

However, at the moment traceroute is acting really weird - the traces seem
to get to and report the FINAL destination but all other hops are starred
out !


Any ideas ?

Yes, it should work with (2) and (3), but why enable ICMP from properties
if
you use rules ?
