Using your scripts as a starting point, and the one-liner kernel patch,
I was able
to get it mostly working as well. I also see trouble with traceroute
and agree
that the problem is getting the right source-address in the ICMP and/or
UDP response
packets.
I'm going to start digging into the kernel to see if there is some way I
can force the
response out the same interface as it came in from, and also to force
the source IP
to be the same as the port it is leaving on.
Thanks,
Ben
