You don't need to run the route commands for this. The output of your route display: > ROOT> route > Kernel IP routing table > Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface > 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 Note the Detination column. This, combined with the Genmask column, means that this row is for IP traffic for 192.168.0.anything. The '*' in the Gateway column means that no gateway is needed, that this is just a local interface. (You see which one, of course, in the Iface column.) Have you tried running your program yet? You said you could ping one computer from the other, so I suspect all is well. If you don't want to refer to the machines by numbers, stick a couple of lines in your /etc/hosts file on each host: 192.168.0.1 machine1 192.168.0.3 machine2 -- Bill Jonas | "If you haven't gotten where you're going, [EMAIL PROTECTED] | you aren't there yet." --George Carlin http://www.billjonas.com/ | http://www.harrybrowne.org/
