GRE tunnel problem om FreeBSD 5.2.1

[Erik Mossberg]

   Hello,
   I have a weird problem with a GRE tunnel, the setup is as follows;
   gre0: flags=b051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,LINK0,LINK1,MULTICAST> mtu
   1476
           tunnel inet 213.67.20.137 --> 194.145.248.113
           inet 194.145.248.138 --> 194.145.248.137 netmask 0xfffffffc
   And I've tried both w/ and w/o the link1 option mentioned in the man
   page for gre.
   and netstat -rn -f inet:
   Destination        Gateway            Flags    Refs      Use  Netif

   when I try to ping 194.195.248.137 I have a 95% packet loss, but when
   pinging from remote to 194.145.248.138 works just fine with no packet
   loss.
   tcpdump -eni rl1 shows this:
   22:05:55.148354 0:10:a7:13:bf:58 0:10:67:0:c4:39 0800 122:
   213.67.20.137 > 194.145.248.113: gre (frag 49403:88 at 752+)
   22:05:56.158351 0:10:a7:13:bf:58 0:10:67:0:c4:39 0800 122:
   213.67.20.137 > 194.145.248.113: gre (frag 49410:88 at 51176)
   Sometimes the packet 1 or 2 packets goes through and gets a reply
   though.
   I use:
   FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p5 #3: Sun Apr 18 22:25:17 CEST 2004
   omicron at fisken:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/merltock  i386
   When google-ing for this problem I found this:
   http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-February/02039
   4.html
   Which seems to be the same problem, can the bug have been brought back
   afterwards?
   I hope I didn't miss any info..
   Regards,
   Erik
