Synopsis: Unable to Route to a different Class C with machine on same ethernet and diff Class C State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback State-Changed-By: joerg State-Changed-When: Sun Aug 24 10:53:52 MEST 1997 State-Changed-Why: What you are doing is not the way this is supposed to work. I'm surprised you even get something that is ``slightly operational'' using your method (i.e. it's more like a bug than a feature that it works ``a little'' at all). In order to route between two networks on a single wire, you need an IP (alias) address in boths nets. (That's what IP aliases have been introduced for in 4.4BSD.) If you are going to offer routing service between both nets for other hosts, you also need to turn on IP forwarding. So please try ifconfig xx0 207.24.132.1 ifconfig xx0 207.24.36.YYY alias and tell us whether this solved your problem.
