5 years ago Try also adding --verbose to see information as to what packets are being relayed.
As far as I can make out, the error here is merely the python traceback in response to Ctrl-C being pressed. Without --foreground the relay will simply fork itself in the background and keep itself quiet. But with --foreground it will appear to just hang (intended behaviour). Adding --verbose will encourage it to tell you more as to what it's up to.
If you're having trouble with it not relaying packets correctly, maybe the output after adding --verbose would help, along with ifconfig eth1 and ifconfig eth3 and a description of where your devices are, i.e. on which networks. Thanks!
Hello,
I am struggling to get this running having tried both Ubuntu 14.04 and 16.10. I have installed netifaces but am unsure as to what the error is:
