Charles,

Sorry folks if this is too big I was rejected for 60KB.  I compressed the
attachment more.

1.  I modified /etc/init.d/network to add a static route to 192.168.1.0/24 via
192.168.2.253
2.  Also, my INTERN_NET="192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.0/24"
3. I do wnat my two internal networks to talk.  Sooooo

With regard to your WARNING below.
I created a drawing included here which better illustrates what I'm doing.
If I have static routes from my internal servers to 192.168.1.0/24 via
192.168.2.253 and I list both the LRP box and the .253 router as gateways for my

windooze boxes, won't I be OK.  Every thing on the 192.168.1.0/24 side will
simply have a default gateway.  Also, If a 192.168.2.0/24 box were to ask for a
route to 192.168.1.0/24 wouldn't the LRP issue a ICMP redirect for the internal
lans?  Or is that the change I would have to make to ipchains.conf?

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
If you need more info let me know.

Thanks a bunch,
Glenn Thompson
