Does it make a difference? Thanks again. routeD only implements the RIP protocol. gateD has support for many many many routing protocols, and is more secure after a fashion (mostly because RIP is not particularly secure, and gateD has support for securer protocols). It would depend on what sort of routing this coloed box is going to need, that based on its purpose. If you can get away with a static routing table, you can nuke both. I am not an expert on configuring gateD but have heard its not so bad. Because of the way RIP works, routeD should be start it and forget it. RIP is not real good for border applications due to the lack of security. -- Matthew Micene Systems Development Manager Express Search Inc. www.ExpressSearch.com ____________________________ A host is a host from coast to coast, and no one will talk to a host too close Unless the host that isn't close is busy, hung or dead
