So why exactly are you setting a 172.30.0.3 host address with a /16 mask and then trying to tell it that the rest of the 172.30.0.0/16 network is on the other side of a router? Still, even though I would question your network setup, you should be able to do what get the configuration you want whith the following: For eth0 make sure there is a GATEWAY line that is set to the system default gateway 196.x.x.1. For eth1 make sure there is no GATEWAY line at all in the ifcfg-eth1 file. Then, create a route-eth1 with the following: GATEWAY0=172.30.0.1 NETMASK0=255.255.0.0 ADDRESS0=172.30.0.0 Later, Tom _______________________________________________ rhelv5-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhelv5-list
