As Beat questioned, I suspect your company network (192.168.40.0/24) know
that it must use your machine (192.168.50.122) as it's gateway to get to
192.168.50.0/24 ?
In other words, it would appear you have one side of the equation correct
but are missing the other side. Assuming the other gateway is the (single)
default gateway for 192.168.40.0/24 - you should simply have to add a route
on that router instructing it to use 192.168.40.122 (your ip) as the gateway
to the other subnet you created as 192.168.50.0/24.
NETWORK A
-> use 192.168.50.1 as default gateway
192.168.50.1 == router == 192.168.40.122
NETWORK B
-> use 192.168.40.1 as default gateway
192.168.40.1 == router -> add entry on this router to use 192.168.40.122
to get to 192.168.50.1
Unfortunately, without seeing the route table for both sides I can't be sure
- but like I'd said and Beat had eluded to, I think your missing the
instructions to the other side of the route.
