My problem was not the mac handling, but an missing feature to connect two switches together via an udp-tunnel. I have rewritten (but not redesigned) most of the code. The latest published codebase can be found here: http://www.uxu.ch/uxu/software/uml_switch2 regards Felix P.S.: My code is (since about a year) in the state of further improvement (I want an uml-switch, which can start and stop uml-guests and be controlled via a control socket), but this codebase is actually not in an releasable state (although I use it on my production machine :-) ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
