I recently upgraded an old system to 3.4R. Now I'm getting a lot of ICMP redirect log messages directing that host back to itself: Jan 31 10:44:36 myhost /kernel: icmp redirect from 10.0.0.68: 10.0.0.67 => 10.0.0.67 Jan 31 10:44:57 myhost last message repeated 234 times Jan 31 10:46:59 myhost last message repeated 954 times Jan 31 10:57:01 myhost last message repeated 4695 times (I've changed the network portion and hostname for the example.) I don't understand why the triggering packets ever made it out to the gateway in the first place - shouldn't it loopback for its own IP address? I've checked 'ifconfig -a' and 'netstat -nr' output; and both look OK. (Similar to other hosts on the network.)
