Help: source natting won't work on my CSM

Hi All,

My Cisco catalyst 6513 is connecting to another cisco 7513 router. Both of them have "network 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 area 0" in the OSPF statement so that all interfaces are inter-pingable. Real Servers "10.124.56.1" and "42.100.0.73" are loopback1 and loopback2 on the 7513 router. 42.108.128.1 is the Vlan 33 on the MSFC of the 6513 Switch.

From my workstation 42.108.92.105, I start a telnet session to the VIP 42.108.128.101. But the session waits there and then times out. I can't see the login screen. From the below command, I can see the session is established. So I would think just the return traffic won't get back to my workstation. Please help me resolve this problem.  Thank you very much.

I would suggest to take sniffer traces on the server and on the CSM portchannel.

Make sure the server does receive the SYN and check if the SYN/ACK comes back to the CSM.
