If B and C can talk to each other, you probably have everything working inside the box. Do you have a dynamic routing protocol (such as RIP or OSPF) runnning on B, and are the network routers between B and A listening to updates from B? The machines like A need to know that C can be reached via B.

Hi, It is easy to group CMS and CP into the same box when you are running a Linux guest. The hcp command will pass CP commands down to the layer below you. The CP command is sent to the host system as if you had entered it from the virtual machine console. When you first LOGON to your virtual m
