Subject:   Routing confusion !!! ????

Hello there

 Well I am a newbie in UNIX routing ... & yesterday I was reading a book
that tell you how to turn your hosts into routers ...
Well I have worked most of the time in windows environments ...so I was
confused between the default gateway "address of the router in windows " &
making your host with 2 network interfaces a router...
what do we do when we run demons like routed & gated on our hosts ... do we
use them to point to a router on our network
or we use them to make our host a router ?
the book sort of discuss both in a combine way so I am confused how do we
enable ip forwarding ....

thanks a lot
Faisal
