Re: kernel 2.6 routing anomaly

However, if I ping the ethernet interface of the remote gateway, I see something odd:

hub26:/usr/src/sat # ping 192.168.14.1
PING 192.168.14.1 (192.168.14.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
From 192.168.13.2: icmp_seq=1 Redirect Host(New nexthop: 192.168.13.1)

> The remote gateway (192.168.13.2) has a route to the target
(192.168.14.x) via your own host (192.168.13.1), and it's
trying to tell you that according to his route table, you're
the proper way to the target. It seems that you've set up a
bounce automaton.

I agree it's probably a routing SNAFU. Look at the traffic (for ICMP redirects).
