Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hello all, I am having some really annoying routing problems. Here's my situation: FreeBSD machine at ip xxx.yyy.18.61 connected to multi-homed gateway at xxx.yyy.18.1 The multi-homed machine is running RIP between installed adapters xxx.yyy.18.1 and xxx.yyy.180.54 Adapter xxx.yyy.180.54's default gateway is a router at xxx.yyy.180.1 My problem is this: the FreeBSD machine can traceroute to everything that is in the routing table of the multi-homed gateway at xxx.yyy.18.1 (all entries beginning with the same xxx.yyy.0.0 -- essentially my campus-wide backbone), but when the destination is outside of the backbone and not in the routing table, such as 192.216.191.11 :) , the packets are not being forwarded to the next-hop router at xxx.yyy.180.1. How do I get those packets on their way? Much obliged for any advice at all... __________________________________________________________ Mike D'Arcy Programmer / Systems Analyst UCLA Finance & Information Mgmt - Applications Development Tel.
