The fact that your router cannot ping a machine on an adjacent subnet seems to be an obvious place to investigate. However, telling us that "ip route lists both subnets as I would expect them to be" doesn't leave us much to go on. Perhaps you should read http://leaf.sourceforge.net/mod.php?mod=userpage&menu=1300&page_id=9 under the section on routing problems, and report back in more detail. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeff Newmiller The ..... .....
