(and I must be able to reach chippie from the router/internet too...) diac-gw is a linux box, and chippie a FreeBSD... I tried the following on diac-gw: arp -s 192.168.192.196 [one of the network-card-id's of diac-gw] pub but If I do a traceroute from another host on the internet I didn't manage to reach chippie, the traceroute couldn't pass the router... I think that I have to set up a static route on the router in that case??? well, and then the other, FreeBSD, problem: I have to setup the same network on the FreeBSD of course, and so I did, I set up an ethernet device for 192.168.192.196 and netmask 255.255.255.240 and now I can reach diac-gw, but I can't find the router, and thats normal because the FreeBSD can't reach it of course because it isn't on its subnet... How do I let the FreeBSD know that I can reach the host via diac-gw?
