Thanks for that, I was sure I'd turned them off but I seem to be in a
situation where despite having set rp filtering to 0 in /etc/sysctl, they
seem to be set to 1 after restarting the network.

I must admit though that I've just discovered fwbuilder on sourceforge and it
made setting up our firewall (Mandrake 8.2) a doddle for AH / ESP use.

Cheers,

Jools
