Yes, it is. >the NT box sets 255.255.255.0 on the PPP link. This is because the >routing algorithm chooses the route with the most matching bits (that >is, the one with the longest netmask). Let me know. Interesting thought. I'll give this a try. I've got things working right now by setting up the PPP connection and then manually setting routes on each end. However, if I can automate this, that would be great. With your msg above, I may not have to make any changes on the NT dialin box/router. I'll let you know. On this subject, though.... Right now, the NT box dials into the modem pool via PPP. Is there any way I can have the Linux box (PPP "server") setup a static route to the NT subnet at the time the NT box dials in? (I could set up a script running in the background with a sleep 60 or so that looks to see who's logged in and configures the routing table based on that, but this would be quite a "hack" - there's got to be a better way....)
