It seems that way to me. You are wanting to bridge two networks together. Bonding is when you share bandwidth between two network routes enabling either to be offline and communication still proceed. Bonding is used for performance, redundancy and high availability but uses redundant routes. You don't have redundant routes here. > bond0 consist of eth1 and eth2 connected with following config: > allow-hotplug bond0 > iface bond0 inet static > address 10.1.1.1 > netmask 255.255.255.0 > network 10.1.1.0 > broadcast 10.1.1.255 > slaves eth1 eth2 > bond-mode broadcast > bond-miimon 100 > bond-downdelay 200 > bond-updelay 200 > > <server> has no problem connecting to both desktops, and vice versa, both > there i can not get a connection between the two desktops (iptables has > been disabled).

At least that is what I think you want from reading the above description. I am going to proceed with a suggestion based upon that assumption. Instead of the above try this configuration: iface eth0 inet manual iface eth1 inet manual auto br0 iface br0 inet static address 10.1.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 bridge_ports eth0 bridge_stp off bridge_fd 0 bridge_maxwait 0 You may need to install bridge-utils first to get the tools: # apt-get install bridge-utils Bob
