You can't have both nics on the same network like that.
 
if you do, you should have the server in bridging mode as an ethernet
bridge, not just with two nics on the same subnet.

Subject: [suse-security] Martian problems

Hi, I'm having problems with a SuSE 9.2 box.

The box is set up with two interfaces on the same subnet. The interfaces
has been set up as normal with static ip's 10.9.1.3, 10.9.1.2 , netmask
255.255.255.0 and broadcast 10.9.1.255.

I'm getting errormessages saying
Aug 2 12:33:41 mail2 kernel: martian source 10.9.1.255 from 10.9.1.3,
on dev eth1
Aug 2 12:33:41 mail2 kernel: ll header:
ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:c0:9f:2c:2d:f7:08:00

Is this related to the usage of two nics on the same subnet? If so, is
there a way to solve this? It seems the martians are stopping cups from
doing broadcasts.

Kind regards,
Tarjei
