IP Routing Question

[Steve Douville]

Well, the solution ended up just setting up the rule for the subnet, not the 
host...
route add aaa.bbb.ccc.200/29 aaa.bbb.ccc.200 -interface

Had to move some IP addresses, but at least the traffic is going to the 
right ethernet controller now.

Thanks for the help!

OK, then what about 'route add -host aaa.bbb.ccc.209 aaa.bbb.ccc.200'?
And if that doesn't work, can I please see 'netstat -rn'?  You can
obfuscate the IPs if you wish.

Cheers,

Drew
