OK. I did that and everything is working fine. Problem is, I can't pinpoint how it is working. Before I eliminate the hub, I want to make sure that the LAN is using the gateway and not the hub. What command can I use to best determine which route local traffic is taking? If local traffic is now using the hub, how can I force it to use the gateway instead? The existing LAN -- and presumably the hub -- is using hardcoded /etc/hosts addresses. (192.168.0.x) The gateway is assigning addresses dynamically (range 192.168.1.[2-64] -- the gateway itself uses the address 192.168.1.1). What changes do I need to make to the hosts file or other configuration so that local traffic uses the dynamically assigned address in the 192.168.1. [2-64] range? Sorry for being so thick here, but I have a conceptual barrier to overcome. Once I understand what is happening, I can usually figure out the details for myself.

Everything on the hub was peer to peer. -- _____________________________________________________________ Art Alexion Arthur S.
