Hello, I am having a problem with my Linux Box. Its connected in a LAN. The problem is i cant get my default gateway fixed. We use 10.0.0.0 IP block for our Lan. the Gateway is: 10.0.0.1 which is also acting as a local router for the WAN. It's also a Linux Box. My system's address is x.x.x.51 This is the routng table of the system: [root@gizmo root]#route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 10.0.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [root@gizmo root]# Whenever I apply the 'route' command it takes time to show the Default GW entry. At this point I cant even ping my interface address. Few days earlier I tried the same thing and it worked. But not now. I have enabled ip masqueraidng in my router. Also ip_forwarding is enabled in both of the system. The router's routing tables shows: [root@GW root]# route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 203.112.201.246 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 203.112.201.246 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 [root@GW root]# Can any one PLS Help me out from this problem.
