Hello,
This sysctl parameter (accept_local) is available from kernel version 2.6.34 onwards.Is it possible to isolate it as a loadable kernel module?It affects core routing functionality and the general opinion is to extract the patch and recompile the entire kernel.The patch was under Patrick's name
