Terry,

I would really appreciate some more elaborate wisdom :-).
Being a tcp/ip newbie I tried everything, but as soon as a 
default route is setup to my ISP, all packets from other machines just 
seems to head straight down sl0 and into oblivion. Do you mean I can 
setup more than one default route on the Linux box?

I would really appreciate an example of an /sbin/route command to do 
this, for the following machines 192.168.100.100 & 192.168.100.101.

Again, some more elaborate wisdom please :-).

Cheers,
