You see, I'm wondering how your router knows to send packets destined for the subnets to zvi first. The router thinks that _all_ of the 206.117.19.0/25 network is connected to its 206.117.19.1 interface. It does not know that a packet for 206.117.19.125 needs to be sent to 206.117.19.2 to be routed. The router does not send them to zvi, but will try to find the hosts connected to its interface directly. I see two choices: reconfigure the router or run NATd on the FreeBSD box. I did some traceroutes and pings of your setup (I hope you do not mind), and although they do not absolutely verify my suspicions, the results were consistent with them. -- Crist J.
