Forwarding error in ettercap

[gunrunr]

I'm connected via eth0 to my netgear router running ettercap on my lenovo, its running on BT4 final in Vmware.
the computer i'm sniffing is running windows vista 64 bit, and im using ARP poisoning for my MITM attack.
I was able to sniff my NNTP login credentials but for some reason my connections timed out when i was trying to view web pages, and access my gmail. the error i was getting was in this line

SEND L3 ERROR :922 byte packet (0800:01) destined to 192.168.0.4 was not forwarded (libnet_write_ipv4(): -1 bytes written (message too long)

as far as the options i chose in ettercap :
its bridged sniffing
promiscuous mode
and sniff remote connection
let me also mention that i was using the gtk release in version 0.7.3

The question is can i change any config so that it will forward any size packet so i won't receive the error and my connections wont be dropped. The NNTP traffic all forwarded fine, but it was just the HTTP traffic that wasn't forwarded.

been a while since I did this but things that come to mind first... is your VMware in bridge mode?
also are you poising proper IP like your gateway?

Have you been able to solve the problem?

On the Internets, some say that "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" may help.

I have this problem as well - did you find solition ?

[ha1ryhole]

did you uncomment the ip_tables option in /etc/etter.conf.
gmail is https so this option is necessary.

good luck

i have never been able to solve the problem. i think it was due to the fact that the wireless router was an Apple airport. Also, the WLAN where I got this error was of pretty bad quality. This in combination with a wireless MITM attack was in my opinion the reason for this error.
