How to Force a SunOS Machine Not to Be a Router?
Answer:
If you do not want your multiple-interface SunOS machine to route packets, you will need to rebuild the kernel. In the file /sys/netinet/in_proto.c, change the following line: #define IPFORWARDING 0 to read: #define IPFORWARDING -1 Afterwards, config the kernel, remake it, and then install it. It may be useful to note, that on SunOS machines, IPFORWARDING can have three values: -1 Never forward IP packets 0 Don't forward, but change IPFORWARDING to 1 if there are two or more interfaces 1 Always forward IP packets
