However, I'm not sure I like the idea of sending the packet back out with a special X marker. I'd prefer if the target network(s) could be specified: rwhod -r 172.17.10.255 -r 10.0.0.255 etc If rwhod kept a note of the payload it sends out, and simply makes sure it doesn't send the same thing out twice in a row within (say) 15 seconds, it may be better ? This could be implemented fairly easily by just maintaining a list of timestamped outbound packets and expiring them when it notices they're out of date.... -- Brian http://www.freebsd-services.com/ Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour !
