RE: OSDL Bugzilla #2399: A user can remotely route a packet through eth0 on a Li

["J. M." <snortwiz@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Applicable snip of netstat -lnp output:

Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State    
   PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 10.10.10.10:22          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN   
   2836/sshd

No, ip_forward probably doesn't apply, but this is my first bug post so I 
figured I'd better include anything remotely possible :)
