Hrm ... the problem here is my ISP gave me those (CCC.DDD.78.61 = gw, CCC.DDD.78.62 = my_host, 255.255.255.252 netmask) numbers. That part of the setup actually went pretty well when I got a supported NIC in the box. While I found drivers for the dm NIC (the one C|Net's selling) apparently either the card didn't want to co-exist with two pn's or the driver was/is buggy. I actually have the .62 machine talking to .61 and the rest of the world through it. My next problem is the 64 IP block I got that starts on 144 and runs to 207 .. my FreeBSD boxes want a /26 to end on 209, though if I specify '... broadcast CCC.DDD.72.207' it will let me set up an apparently non-CIDR block of IP's. The current situation is basically "it was a bad/unsupported NIC, my gw problem is fixed now." I am still interested in learning how to route traffic in & out of each NIC based on something like OSPF or BGP or the like. Any clues there? Thanks to Jahanur R Subedar and Raymundo M. Vega for sending me pointers and helping me get this fixed. --Ben Williams mailto:received@email dot com Quoting Raymundo M.
