Just in case anyone was wondering, the solution to the problem was to put the -netmask qualifier (and its associated mask value) AFTER the destination parameter, not after the "add" option keyword, even though the route command confirmation and the netstat output look correct in both case. The manual does state that the -netmask qualifer should follow the destination parameter, so the correct operation is consistent with the documentation, though I missed that subtlety earlier. Thanks to those of you who have so kindly replied. I will post to hacers with more detailed information about the seemingly anamolous behavior of route and netstat.
