I am having a hard time getting the route correct as the ppp wants to pull the ip of the router I dial into as the gateway when its not. The gateway is 204.244.99.65. the router is 204.244.99.76 (there are two more at 74 adn 75 also) and in this example 204.244.99.124 was dynamically assigned. Are the last two ip's in the right place? should they not be reversed? 124 the destination and .76 the gateway? How do I make it so that the router (there are three of them I can dial into) is not recognized as paart of the route? And where can I get more info ont he flags? U is UP G is Gateway and I know H is for HOST, but Ive seen others c for one and S. I have a shell on an AIX box that has some info but not enough to go on to "port" to my situation. What should a proper route table look like for a machine dialed out via ppp with either a dynamcially assied ip or a staic one. (I can have both) Its just the router problem thats got me stymied and frustrated. Well off to read the faq and handbook again... Thanks for any info... Keith
