Subject: Linux vs FreeBSD Which is correct.
Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2011 13:03:18 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E4BF456.9000807@earthlink.net> (raw)
Hello List,
Firstly thank you for your patience. I am replacing a bunch of FreeBSD
vpn/fw/routers
with a Linux based system.
I have run into a situation where if I ping our HQ the response comes
back on a different
interface than what the request went out on. FreeBSD is happy and says
it got the response,
Linux is not and gives no indication it got a response.
So is FreeBSD wrong or is Linux wrong?
Or is there some sysctl I can fiddle with on Linux to make it see the
response. This happens
with the iptables set to accept on all chains.
Thanks again for your indulgence. I googled this and didn't find
anything germane.
