Hi, This is a followup to the original post from James Jun, on Dec, 2003. http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-net/2003-December/002114.html Quick reminder: in the case the route to the packet's source is not the interface this packet arrived on, do we have a way to source ICMP errors (ttl-exceeded) with the original interface's IP address ? Currently the box is sending ttl-exceeded with the IP address of the interface the route to the sender is pointing at. No need to explain why such a feature would be useful - primarily for traceroute comprehension & routing troubleshooting, rather than for some cosmetic purposes. Regards, -- Julien Lesaint.
