To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi, I have following situation: PC1 --------- PC2 --------- PC3 eth0 eth0 eth1 eth1 on PC2 ip_forward = 0. If I now try to ping from PC3 to PC2 eth0 I can ping it, also the most dangerous I can telnet to eth0 even if ip_forward is 0. Am I missing something or what is wrong here ???
