IP_Forwarding

Dear all,

I have a server with 2 NICs.  Before testing out my firewall script, I just ran
a test.  the server is configured with an external NIC (203.121.12.69) and
internal NIC (10.10.10.1).  IP forwarding is disabled i.e cat
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward produce 0.  An internal host (10.10.10.2) pinging
my server's external IP (203.121.12.69) actually works.  How come?  Am I missing
something here again?  *looking confused*



P.S: If this is irrelavent, please advise where this should be posted.. Thanx.

Cheers/THNX in advance.


Regards,
