Given linux router dalton, eth 3, connected to a local machine 
carnot, eth0, with a cross-over cable, I need some help to set 
the configurations properly.

#dalton:/etc/network/interfaces
   ...
iface eth3 inet static
        address 172.24.2.1
        up   route add -host 142.103.107.138
        down route del -host 142.103.107.138

#carnot:/etc/network/interfaces
   ...
iface eth0 inet static
        address 142.103.107.138
        gateway 172.24.2.1
        
Obviously these specifications are deficient; but there 
is no point in fretting details until I understand the 
concepts.  The link must be in a network.  How can 
172.24.2.1 and 142.103.107.138 be in one network?  Does 
carnot need a local address along with its public address?

Incidental points.

http://www.linuxrouter.org/ appears to be defunct although 
many links to it exist.  At least one in tldp.org.

r...@dalton:~# /etc/init.d/networking restart
Running /etc/init.d/networking restart is deprecated because it may not enable a
gain some interfaces ... (warning).

So "networking restart" deprecated.  What is the "new way"?

Thanks,              ... Peter E.
