I'm using 2 3c590 nic controllers : eth0 for ip eth1 for raw ethernet (on another physical net segment) When I'm collecting packets from eth1 I receive packets sent to eth0 (on another physical segment !). Another strange phenomena I'm experiencing is that if I'm configuring eth1 with ifconfig eth1 up (no ip) the linux box can't even ping other machines (with the same netmask & broadcast as eth0). Only broadcast pings succeeds if eth1 is not supporting ip. -- regards ran Ran Golde Unix Administration & Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] Telrad Telecommunication Phone: +972-8-913-3478 Lod 71100 Israel Fax: +972-8-913-3264 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
