You'll need to 1) enable packet forwarding on your Sparc box ('svcadm enable ipv4-forwarding') 2) add a static route into your Linksys to tell it that it reaches the 10.10 network via 192.168.1.200 alternatively you could do NAT, but that'll be messy. -- Rasputnik :: Jack of All Trades - Master of Nuns http://number9.hellooperator.net/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-help mailing list opensolaris-help@opensolaris.org
