there is no routing protocols running, and between A and B theres only a
switch, they can see each other.

there is a static route in A so it can reach C.

i can see the packets coming from C to A (ping), and i can see the echo
reply from A to C coming out from the A's interface, the problem is that i
cant see it coming in from the OSA, its like the OSA dont want to take the
packet, or something like that.

im trying to use the primary router thing to work, but i cant the osa take
the option, i think that maybe the problem is that, because actually the
osa is dedicated to my z/vm LPAR and i dont have no more OS's running on
it, only my linux is using it.

thanks
