Obviously, there is something wrong in the routing table.But what is wrong I don't know. Please help me out. This is the first time I am trying my hand at creating a routing table. (Simply trying to follow the NAG. >>Surely missed something obvious.)

Your routing tables are fine. Probably you don't have IP forwarding >enabled.

sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
(To see if you have it already enabled, try sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward)
Add an entry to /etc/sysctl.conf as well.

Thanks for the response. As you and Devdas said, I have enabled ip_forwarding.
But still, I am not being able to reach the 192.168.10.0 network from the
192.168.1.0 network.


However, one thing that I found is that if I add routing entry for the other
network in one computer each in both the networks, those two computers can
ping each other. ( I mean, if I put a routing entry for the 192.168.10.0
network in 192.168.1.113, and a similar entry for the 192.168.1.0 network
in 192.168.10.71, those two computers can ping each other via the local
gateway. But 192.168.1.113 is unable to ping 192.168.10.2, say, unless this
one is also configured similarly.)


But I thought the default gateway line in the routing
table should have done the same thing. Now, it is not possible to go
to each computer in the 192.168.10.0 network and tell them about a
192.168.1.0 network.


So, I am still stuck. Is there any other thing I should be checking?

Santanu
