i don't know the answer to joaquin question but i'd like to add a questions:

* can you translate the two networks into an alternative notation (VLSM)?
i think they would be 10.6.44.48/28 for interface Ce0 and 10.6.44.64/28
for Ce1. please correct if i am wrong; it's been a long time since i
worked with the notations.

* can you edit the file /etc/defaultrouter and add the IP address of the
other router (the one that's on the same subnetwork as Ce1, which i think
would be the 10.6.44.64/28 network)? i read the manual entry on
defaultrouter and you can have more than one IP address in the file. maybe
the solution is simply to add the second line?

* how will solaris choose which default router to send packets to? would
it depend on the application that generates the packet? for example, if an
apache webserver is running as an application on Ce0, would the packets
that apache sends back to the clients (browsers) automatically go via Ce0
through the default router on the 10.6.44.48/28 network? And suppose a
java ee appserver is running on solaris with an IP address on the
10.6.44.64/28 network, would solaris send response packets via Ce1 through
the default router on that network?

* what if you give the command "ping google.com" from the command line?
which interface and default router would be selected? would it depend on
the order of the entries in the /etc/defaultrouter file?

i appreciate your help.
