Ok. Solaris by default routed between interfaces of it own. You right: # ndd -get /dev/ip ip_strict_dst_multihoming 0 But is it really "the default for most other systems" to forward between interfaces with different netwokrs?? >[The assumption I'm making here, and that I can't prove, is that >192.168.0.2 on your network is the address of a router that knows how to >forward packets to 10.10.10.3.] Yes and no, I try to make the Solaris box to be a router/forwarder. It had worked but no more. but it is another story :) Now i try to understand how solaris networking is done and i found that funny routing "problem". An example: FreeBSD's forwarding between interfaces is off by default . I think it is in Windows too. Thank you very much. You help me to understand that i know nothing about Solaris networking :) If my attempt to make a "real router" from that box will fail i will make another thread and may be you will help me :) Tnx and sorry for my terrible English. ------------- -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list networking-discuss@opensolaris.org
