Re: Trouble with extensions

Thank you for the quick response!

I've tried OUTPUT now, and I no longer get the error...


...however, I don't get the results I hoped to obtain either.
I would like *ALL* frames from my wireless IF to be broadcast. I thought
the rule I added would do that, but it seems not to have worked. Can
anyone see anything obvious that I am doing wrong?

for reference:

ebtables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o wlan0 -j dnat --to-destination
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff --dnat-target ACCEPT
