Maybe this example will help you debug your problem.
This is a route command that I added to the manual startup commands to
access a friend's system on the @HOME cable modem system in our city.
@HOME filters TCP/IP traffic within the same hubs which prevented us
from connecting to each other. I also had to add a route to the
workstation on my internal LAN so that it could get to my friend's
system via my STN firewall system.
The path is :
my workstation <--> Linux STN <--> @HOME gateway <--> friend's sys
192.168.0.10 <--> 192.168.0.1 eth0
24.4.42.46 eth1 < --> 24.4.40.1<---> 24.4.45.117
My WIN95 workstation --> route add 24.4.45.117 192.168.0.1
My Linux STN --> route add -host 24.4.45.117 gw 24.4.40.1 dev eth1
friend's WIN95 system --> route add 24.4.42.46 24.4.40.1
As you will notice, I did not use a NETMASK parameter on any route
command and I had to use a dev parameter on the STN route command.
I think the SIOADDRT: No such device error occurs because your system
can not find your NIC.
Hope this helps!
