But that did not help. A 'netstat -rn' shows: [Dest] [Gateway] [Flags] [Refs] [Use] [Interface] default 156.23.45.678 UGS 0 0 ef0 This stuff worked fine for a few days after we brought up the machine. When we started adding other machines to the network, this one broke! If its the routing tables that were corrupt - I figured the 'route flush' should have fixed it. Any suggestions?? Please mail: brigid@quaestus.com or mini@arinet.com Thanx very much! Brigid and Mini
