I have not seen the answer to my question so here goes: Can I assign multiple tcp/ip addresses to the same network interface which are in separate subnets? If so, how? And how do I prevent the machine from routing between the two if this is possible? For example: I've discovered how multiple addresses in the _same_ subnet work. I have sucessfully configured the same nic to reply to both 199.181.87.15 and 199.181.87.65 but they are in the same subnet. What I want to do is to have the machine respond to both 199.181.87.15 and 207.16.212.15 without adding an additional nic. I have my router configured so that both the 199.181.87.0 and 207.16.212.0 subnet's exist on the same piece of ethernet and it routes between them - so I have to ensure that routed does _not_ do any routing (or I'll have a loop). Thanks for your assistance! Pete Simpson psimpson@oucsace.cs.ohiou.edu -- Peter J. Simpson | psimpson@oucsace.cs.ohiou.edu Have a hobie day!|
