Bug Description

the traffic through eth42 (ghostified interface) can be affected by netfilter configuration.

For example if a student blocks all incomming packets (iptables -P INPUT DROP) on a virtual machine it's no longer possible to connect to this machine with ssh using the eth42 interface.

We have no answer yet, sorry.
May be in a new revision of the ghostification kernel patch.
