Hi Fredrik,
I may be mistaken but if you're using 255.255.255.224 for a netmask, then
the ip-addresses of your router map into the same subnet: the one from 128
(networkaddress) upto 159(broadcastaddress). This will not be your
intension.

If you use routed as your sole means of routing, you'd better use the "-s"
(from supply routes) option (using REDHAT you have to patch it in).
Hope to have been of service,
Hugo.
