thanks for the info, but I, with the help of Charles and others, I was unknowingly useing the "small" kernel, that has numerous advanced routeing features disabled. After I copied the "normal" kernel onto the floppy it ip rule commands started to respond properly.
Thanks again all, David -----Original Message----- From: Scott R.

Don't know what that does.. Here is how I would add a route: route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 metric 1 eth0 your default route should point to the internet. route add -net 0.0.0.0/0 gw 123.123.123.254 metric 1 eth 1 You can view the routing table with netstat -nr If you need more help, perhaps you can explain the problem in detail. IE which packets are going the wrong way? -Scott David wrote: ------------------------------- I have a box with 3 nics. One for LAN and two for cable modems. LAN is static and others are DHCP clients. Both DHCP clients (eth0 and eth2) successfully get addresses. I want to create a routing table to make sure that all traffic that came in on eth0 goes out eth0 and not tries to go out eth2. I have read several docs for routing, but still can not seem to create even the first route. I am trying "ip rule add from aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd table 1" and even "ip rule add from aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd lookup 1" What am I doing wrong. I can use other ip commands, just can not seem to add the routes.
