Not strictly Debian related but the boxes in question are deb powered. I have just been given a /28 (16 node) subnet and until I get a switch in place I have a short xover eth cable between two boxes. I thought I could get away with a couple of static routes in the mean time but the upstream default gateway on the first box keeps arping for the IP on the 2nd box... subnet is x.x.x.144/28 ...
x.x.x.145 <-> eth0:x.x.x.146 eth1:x.x.x.147 <-xover-> eth0:x.x.x.158 Any suggestions as to how x.x.x.158 can see the outside world ? --markc
