Yes, although many would consider it bad practice (I am an example), because youŽll face trouble when you have to debug something, and have non-routable IPs on some path. >So is it just a matter of setting up something like >/sbin/route -net 10.1.2.0/24 gw 172.16.5.2 >on the gateway? Yes, but you should specify the netmask in 255.x.x.x-notation, route on linux sometimes tends to get classful when facing /-notation... cheers, &rw -- / Ing.
