If you're on hosta and you're trying to ping hostb, and you get a
message saying Redirect Host(New nexthop: hostb),
wouldn't that mean hosta and hostb are on the same network?
At least the same phyisical network, not necessarly the same
logical network. (trying to pretend I know what I'm talking about :)
It might be that you have a subnet mask problem, or a dicky route,
or perhaps you have more than one subnet on your network and hosta
and hostb are on different subnets?
