no route to host

[Ronald Weinrich]

Hi Danny Pansters,
thank you for clearing me up
so that means 213.47.28.166/32 is only  ip 213.47.28.166

if try to create a static route from 192.168.0.0/16 to my dns1 on 213.47.28.162/32 I 
have to add to my rc.conf
static_route="dns"
route_nds="-net 192.168.0.0/16  213.47.28.162/32"

--------- ip xx.xx.xx.xx 
MY ROUTER
--------- 213.47.28.161 is gw for ..162 and 163
    |
    |
     --------www dns1   xx.xx.xx.162
    |
     --------dns2 xx.xx.xx.163
    |
    |
--------- ed0 xx.xx.xx.166

 freebsd-box 
 ipnat should run here  :)
 (ipfilter) later may be ;)

--------- ep0 192.168.0.1  gw for intra 192.168.0.xx
    ^
    ^        
192.168.0.0/16
correct ?

thank you
ron
