I am still having some difficulty understanding what is going on with routing on 192.168.x.x. I have removed the IP aliases from the gateway eth1 so that it only responds to aaa.bbb.ccc.1. I have changed the netmask on Host B eth1 [192.168.209.43] to 255.255.0.0 and set its gateway to

Well, I seem to be getting somewhere, although where exactly is open to question. I did this. I put the virtual interface address 192.168.0.1 back onto eth1 of the gateway host and restarted the network services. The ifcfg file looked like this: BOOTPROTO=none BROADCAST=192.168.255.255
