I had set the iroute directive earlier and was able to ping through to 
the secondary interface from the server, but not from the other 
clients.  Pushing the route has now allowed the other clients to see 
the interface as well.  Thank you.  :-)

My last remaining obstacle is allowing the packets to be forwarded 
through OpenBSD's packet filter.  I will do some reading and hopefully 
will have this up and running soon.

Thanks to everyone, you guys are "it".  :-)
