Any hints most welcome.. > man route add maybe? something along the lines of route add -net <network> <ip of interface> if this approach is proper (I'm a 'dummy' and haven't had to do this in sometime so memory gets fuzzy) you may need to do it on both subnets to get each connected to the other. Exact syntax will depend on your networks. The reservation I have here that I'm way too fuzzy about is how ARP fits, but iirc it comes into play somehow. There are smarter people around who may be able to confirm a canonical approach to joining two subnets via the routing table. But, remember - I'm a dummy so I just toss it out as an idea. Just a potential idea to consider. I'm probably wrong. -Mike
