redirects don't seem to be working

[Alex Samad]

Hi

probably just me, but

I have a network 172.20.0.0/16 dgw is 172.20.0.1 

ip 134.134.134.1/32 is available via 172.20.1.50

so on 172.20.0.1 I have set 


net.ipv4.conf.eth1.send_redirects = 1


when I go to machine x ( 172.20.243.253) and try

telnet 134.134.134.1 8080 

it doesn't seem to make it

accept_redirects in on machine X and if I run

ip r r 134.134.134.1/32 via 172.20.1.50

it works.



when I try

tcpdump -pni eth0 icmp 

on machine X, I see the redirects being sent by the dgw. but when I do a
ip r g 134.134.134.1 I still have it pointing to the old address ?
