RE: OSDL Bugzilla #2399: A user can remotely route a packet throu gh eth0 on a Linux machine

Jared,

I can't shake the feeling that the service didn't actually bind to eth1, but
instead bound to INADDR_ANY. You can find out with 'netstat -lnp'. Would you
mind posting the output?

I don't think the ip_forward flag applies here.
