You confirmed what I read in the manual. I followed all the logical
steps in the manuals examples but seem not to be able to establish a IP
route to my server.
The topology is really simple
Home PC --------> Home pipe --->/\/---> office pipe ------> NTserver
208.205.255.154 208.205.255.153 208.205.255.41 |
208.205.255.40
|
-> Office PC's
208.205.255.44 --- 75
all devices share the same net (208.205.255.xxx) There is no other
router on the office network.
Subnet mask at home is 252
Subnet mask office is 0
About 30 PC's connected to the office network in the range of
208.205.255.44 untill ...75 All with subnetmask ...0 and a few with
default gateway ...41. All the others have no default gateway (I think).
No devices in the address range 208.205.255.0 untill 39.
I only want to connect to the NT server, and access our office LAN
resources. No need to go to the internet. That is why I used (until I
get something better) the Ascend test addresses.
>From home PC I can ping ...154, ...153 and ...41 but not the NT server
...40
>From the home router I can ping the same addresses but I can't ping the
NT server, nor does it appear in IP addresses or IP routes
>From the office router I can ping ...154, ...153, ...41 and ...40
and all other workstations on the net so I
presume that the office router does see the NT server although it does
not show up in the Ip route or IP address tables.
None of the officeworkstations can ping my home router nor my PC. It
looks like the office pipe is blocking the route between my home PC and
the office network.
Where am I going wrong in the IP addresses or is it something else? Do I
need to build a subnet in my office ?

Just accesssing the LAN resources in the office from my home PC
Should I build a subnet on the office side with the pipe on ...41/30 and
the NT server on address ...42/30 so that there is really no other route
for the packes to go. Doing this, what happens to the communication
between tbe NTserver and the rest of the PC's?
Or should I build a net with the pipe on ...41/26 and the NTserver on
...42/26 and having the range from ...43 to ...102 available for the
other machines?
Thanks for your help
