This has not been a problem till now. I cannot just re-number because some of the old stuff has no documentation, so I'd like to run both 100.0.0.xxx and 192.168.1.xxx on the same network while I re-number what I can. So I built a bridge with 2 Intel 10/100's, added options BRIDGE and re-built the kernel. Both cards run in promiscuous mode, but neither network can see the other. I haven't implemented options IPFIREWALL yet. Is a bridge the right thing in this situation? Or have I just not built the bridge correctly? From a '100' box I get 'No route to host' when I ping a '192' pc. I have not given either card an IP address as suggested by the documentation. Any help very welcome.
