0000342: Strange ICMP packets...
Hello, here is what if find (many similar lines) in my router's firewall log :

Time: 10:56:06
In : eth0 (<-- My Green LAN NIC)
Out : ppp0
Proto : ICMP
Source IP : 192.168.1.221 (<-- The IP of the computer who runs aMule)
Source Port : 63436 (<--??????)
Dest IP : 82.224.XXX.234 (<-- Someone else IP)
Dest Port : 40001 (<-- This port is forwarded to 192.168.1.221 an used by aMule in TCP, but it's forwarded only when it comes from RED...)

Moreover I have many other packet that crashes on my firewall, around aMule ports, when aMule is running, so I wonder if aMule sends good configuration informations...
For Information, here is my router Network config :

aMule does not send ICMP packets. Your firewall is fooling you, or you have something seriously missconfigured on one of the boxes.
