I believe I know what this is - some one can straighten me out if not. This would be an ICMP REDIRECT packet coming from your router telling the LEAF system to use THIS machine instead of THAT one as the gateway - and the LEAF system is telling you it isn't listening to that other router. However, this seems rather unusual, in that this messages I would think normally would contain three IP addresses, not the one you show here. This should be: host <this_host>/if8 ignores redirects for <gateway> to <other_gateway> or something like that. If I read this right, the system is sending a packet to itself telling itself to redirect its own default gateway to itself. That sounds almost like a routing problem... _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
