It's a consequence of the way that IP over LANs interacts with the bridge. ROUTER<-------->BRIDGE/FW<----->(hosts in 10.0.0.0/8 and in 192.168.1.0/24) When a host in 10.0.0.0/8 sends a request to a host in 192.168.1.0/24, both the request and the reply traverse the bridge twice, once in one direction and once in the other. This might actually work using the new bridging technique -- it can't possibly work using physdev (or at least firewalling becomes impossible using physdev). -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Public Key \ https://lists.shorewall.net/teastep.pgp.key
