I had a quick try just then, but I'm on the 'wrong' side of the link, so I managed to lock myself out for a while :-) Will try again later when I'm at home. Is this a hard thing to fix 'properly'? There was implied that some kernel changes were needed in that previous post. Pragmatically, I might just end up getting another IP address on the Cisco, it seems the easiest solution at the moment.
