Tom, Thanks for the reply. Here's route on the 192.168.3.245. eth0 is down, otherwise it would have the route you suggest.
knuth:/etc/init.d# route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.3.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 0.0.0.0 192.168.3.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 >From 192.167.3.245 I can ping both interfaces on thevenin - 192.168.254 and 192.168.8.24. I figued that some kind of forwarding must be happening there. At the moment I have thevenin mounted on knuth over nfs, so a lot of stuff is working over the .3.0 net. -- Sincerely, David Smead http://www.amplepower.com.
