Sounds like your redirection rule on the Linux box is the error. It
should only generate a ICMP redirect if it forwards the packet, and the
packet should only be forwarded if it is not redirected to the local TCP
port.
Hmm.. have you enabled always defragment? It is a requirement when doing
TCP redirection.. (I think this may actually be enforced by the
makefiles or kernel, but I am not sure).
