For example, I have 4 aliases: 10.50.1.5 10.50.1.6 10.60.1.7 10.60.1.8 My physical interface has 10.50.1.4/24 assigned, so there is no need to assign a netmask for the two 10.50.1.0/24 addresses. (the gnatbox automaticly adds a /32 netmask, or 255.255.255.255) 10.60.1.0/24 is not defined elsewhere, though, and the NAT>Aliases entry is the first definition for the network. I should define a netmask in the entry, then, using: 10.61.1.7/24 10.60.1.8 will not need a netmask. Done this way, the warning you mention will go away, and local-network routing will be handled properly. ...david -- David Raistrick Systems Administrator - Global Technology Associates, Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] Disclaimer: All opinions expressed are the opinions of David Raistrick, not necessarily those of GTA, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive: http://archives.gnatbox.com/gb-users/
