Hello,

I've setup a box, to balance traffic = beetween a=20 cable modem and an adsl, i've installed fedora core 2 in the = box, then=20 downloaded kernel 2.6.7, applied Julian Anastov parches for version = 2.6.7, and=20 then when i tried to compile the kernel i got and error about variable = rt not=20 declared, so i check the patch and saw one of the thing it changes is = getting=20 rid of line 84 of ipt_MASQUERADE.c ( struct rtable *rt; ), so i added = the line=20 back, and the kernel compiled ok.

Now i can have the hosts in my internal = network=20 being forwarded through both lines and all seems to work properly, but = after=20 some hours, it stops working and i cannot have packets forwarded by any = of the=20 lines, the linux box still can reach internet through both interfaces. I = wonder=20 if it's caused by my changes to ipt_MASQUERADE.c.

By the way my ultimate goal is too use = both lines=20 from 1 p2p host, but it seems not to work like that. I guess, all the = p2p=20 clients comes to my p2p box through line 1 (that has a inbound port = forwarded to=20 the p2p host), and so all the packets to that p2p clients goes through = line 1=20 from then 2, while line 2 is virtually useless, i've checked with ntop, = and line=20 1 bandwith usage is 20+times that of line 2.
