I noticed ICMP redirects don't work with the last development kernels
(including 1.99.7). When Linux gets the ICMP redirect message for a _host_,
it should, according to the icmp.c source, update its routing table.
However, it only sends the message "ICMP redirect from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
to syslog but the new route never finds its way into the routing table.
Anyone else observing the same?
Best regards,
Lada
