<DIV>Hi,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>How about turning of IP forwarding? ck out /etc/sysctl.conf. There's an option to turn off IP forwarding. (It's right after the comments). You might want to run "service network restart" for good measure.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope this fixes your problem.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
