I just recently downloaded the patch on 4-16-99. It looks like I have the most recent version. I used a packet sniffer to get an idea of what the packets looked like to what I thought they should be to get a better picture. Apparently the address is getting translated correctly, but when the host B does an ARP to send the ping back no one responds. There appears to be several way to get around this, one is to use IP aliasing, the other is to use the "ARP -s <Translated IP ADDRESS> <MAC> pub" Where the MAC address is the MAC address of the interface of the linux box that you want to respond to that IP address. Along with the ARP command and re-compiling the kernel for a 2.2.3 it seems to work. I am going to try it again with 2.2.4 and the above patch to see what I get as the result, since I know it works at 2.2.3. Does this sound right? Or, as the phrase goes, every dog has its day?
