Re: Invalid ICMP error messages
Dear Cam Ellison, I get a similar problem when I startup samba on Debian. Did you ever figure out what was causing the problem. 172.20.2.84 sent an invalid ICMP type 11, code 0 error to a broadcast: 172.20.255.255 on eth0 This happens with several different IP addresses. Sincerely, Mark V. Principato [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cam Ellison posted: I have iptables installed, and using kernel 2.4.22. Though the first rule is to drop these things, my kernel, syslog, and messages logs are filling up with this sort of thing: Nov 11 04:54:51 treehouse kernel: 24.207.8.30 sent an invalid ICMP type 11, code 0 error to a broadcast: 24.207.15.255 on eth1 I'm trying to drop these according to the destination address, which is the last address in my ISP's block. All sending addresses appear to be within that block. They started to appear during the boot sequence, and if I go to a terminal (that is, tty1,2,..., not xterm) they flood the display. I'm sure I turned something on with my last kernel compilation. Does anyone have an idea about how to turn this off? TIA Cam -- Cam Ellison Ph.D. R.Psych.

invalid ICMP error to a broadcast..
hello, I recentrly upgraded my kernel to 2.4.2, I have two network card on my debian 2.2 system, and I am using ip_forwarding for a local subnet. before I updated to 2.4.1 I never saw this message, 2.4.1 showed this sometimes, but now at 2.4.2 I am getting this at regular intervals can anyone tell me what this means? x.x.x.x sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast? the ip is a remote computer, a gateway or something? and/or how to fix this? thanks in advance Ari Sigurðsson

address sends invalid ICMP error to a broadcast . . . ?
Hi. I'm getting the following error on my linux box (debian, potato) connected to MediaOne via a cable modem-- 24.147.237.100 sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast. Where are these coming from? They happen with two addresses about every five minutes. Are these other people on the net with funny configs? Or up to no good? Thanks for any information. John N. John G. Norman (http://people.ne.mediaone.net/jgnorman/)
Re: ICMP error
VTorres inquired about error messages involved invalid ICMP error... Colin Wilson has given a useful solution. I got this error too, but I traced this to the nmb daemon ( nmbd ) in the samba suite. When I run the daemon ( in potato; I believe I did not get this in slink ) I got this error from one machine. I find it difficult to believe the error is in this one machine, since there are other unic machines on our network which do not seem to give this error. I believe there must the something wrong with the nmbd or how we are confguring. Any same experts out there who would care to comment?

ip addr sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast
Hi, since I upgraded our server machine to kernel 2.2.0 I periodically (every 3 mins.) get the following error or warning message: ip addr sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast Does anyone know what this means? I guess the machine whose IP address is mentioned is misconfigured? Anyway, before I upgraded I did NOT have this error message in my logs Thanks, Ralf -- Ralf G. R.

A machine has told your machine a different route to go through, but it isn't allowed to do this to a broadcast packet. Check that the netmask on the router and your machine match (use ifconfig). If they do then either ignore it or complain :-) At work I get so many of these messages I comment out the offending printk in /usr/local/src/linux/net/ipv4/icmp.c Adrian email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.poboxes.com/adrian.bridgett Windows NT - Unix in beta-testing.
