Hallo.
I have a question about the Linux 2.4 Advanced Routing.
How many Tables can I define (with a command like 'ip rule add fwmark 1
table mytable-1')
in the Linux 2.4 Advanced Routing?
Is that right, that I can only define 255 Tables (minus x for Standart
Tables)?
When I use a ID bigger than 255 i get the message 'Error: argument
"mytable-1" is wrong: invalid table ID').
Is there a way, that I can define more than 255 Tables? (I need it really)
Big thanks for your help.
Regards,
Jens Zerbst

hm, i thought the 255 routing table limit was a 2.2.x issue, and 2.4.x can
have more...
... let me look in the source to verify that.
