Any chance this problem could be caused by having MROUTE and BRIDGE in the kernel at the same time? I notice the comment in bridge.c that stated: * THINGS TO REMEMBER * - bridging is incompatible with multicast routing on the same * machine. There is not an easy fix to this. * - loop detection is still not very robust. * - the interface of bdg_forward() could be improved. */ I have noticed that I had MROUTING in the kernel and I have these same problems.
