Just before i dashed off, i had another peek at it... On (!) both machines i did following: a) ping to the machine at the other side of the bridge simultaneously B) do a tcpdump at the DOM-0 on the related bridge. I only saw an arp request, but no answer. So i manualy pupulated the arp-table at _both_ ends. Next i saw the ICMP-request of _both_ sides on the bridge, but NO answer. Now the intriguing part: I did a tcp-dump on both virtual machines on the related ethernet device, i this case eth1 on both sides. --> on both virtual machine i saw the incoming ICMP-request <-- But, never a reply. Routing is correct, and all firewalls are down. On no other network device i could detect a mis-routed ICMP-reply Getting stranger and stranger.... Specially as on same devices other bridges are working properly! hw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
