I'm porting our old satellite-networking package from kernel 2.2 to
kernel 2.6. Most everything is coming along okay. Today, for the
first time, I have two gateways connected via the "satellite" link
(using a satellite- delay simulator), and I can ping across the link.
If I ping the remote gateway at its satellite interface, I see a
normal ping response:

However, I *have* a route to the 14.0 network, via the 13.2 address
which is the remote satellite gateway. I don't understand what this
"redirect host: new nexthop: 192.13.1" entry is telling me; the 13.1
address is my own eth1 interface; that shouldn't require redirecting
anything??

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here?? I'm enclosing my
routing table and interface info at the end of this message for
reference.

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.

OOPS!!! You're right!! I thought I specified that interface, but I
didn't... It didn't occur to me that the ICMP message might be coming
from somewhere else. Thanks!! That worked great, once I set up the
remote correctly...
