I want to disable IP forwarding on our 520 (AIX 3.2.3) that connects
us to the world. How can I do this? Can I do this with AIX?

Michael

See file /etc/rc.tcpip someting like

if [ -f /usr/sbin/no ]
then
/usr/sbin/no -o ipsendredirects=0
/usr/sbin/no -o ipforwarding=0
fi

Yes you can, no problem. What I do here is add the following command
to /etc/rc.net (at the bottom):

/usr/sbin/no -o ipforwarding=0

to see everything that's set you can use the command:

no -a

Hope this helps.

Use the no command with the following syntax:

no -o ipforwarding=0
