Hello all,

To prevent my NAT-box from showing up on traceroutes I'd like to let it
route without decreasing the TTL. I was told that proxy arp also archieves
this, however I have no need for proxy arp per se and am also not completely
confident that that will do what I want. I also saw TTL decrease/increase
settings in the iptables mangling options, however I use 2.2 and would
rather not upgrade. So my question is: is this possible under 2.2 and if so,
how?

Thanks in advance,
Jordi Verwer
