Hi Martin, I have to agree with your logic but I have double checked and they point to the same default gateway as the other machines on the old network. I went ahead and did a route add for each linux machine (there were three) now they can find the new network as if nothing was wrong. I am still just really confused about it. Maybe they have to have a static route entered even though the router for the old network knows where the new network is.... I have tried every host over the Internet and all seem to find the new network hosts ok.... See below for a simple layout.... Internet --- Old Network --- New Network | | Another Network Anyways, Any other ideas?
