Hi all,
I have set up a NetBSD 1.0 system with 2 ethernet cards and am
tring to get it to route between networks.  From the system,
I can talk to either network fine, but packets do not seem to
be getting through.  Basically, the setup looks like this:

Network  : 138.60.8.(number > 128)  ---
                                      |
                                      | Interface: 138.60.8.254
                                      | Netmask  : 255.255.255.128
                                      |
                             NetBSD System (Gateway)
                                      |
                                      | Interface: 138.60.8.126
                                      | Netmask  : 255.255.0.0
                                      |
Network  : 138.60.*.*               ---


The test consists of having a system on the small subnet try to
get out.  Specifically, we had 138.60.8.143 try to get to _any_
system on the far side of the gateway).  Ping did not work, nor
did telnet, rlogin, ftp, etc ...  The system _could_ talk directly
to the NetBSD gateway system and the gateway could talk to the
138.60.8.143.

Have I done something really stupid?  Is there something special I
need to do for it to work? How does routed decide to rebroadcast a
packet?  Any and all help is greatly appreciated.  Some additional
information is shown below (in case it is needed).

Here is what the routing tables look like:

sun701-gw# netstat -r

Here are the hostname filesfor the two ethernet boards:

sun701-gw# cat /etc/hostname.ed0
inet	sun701-tmp	255.255.0.0
sun701-gw# cat /etc/hostname.ed1
inet	sun701-gw	255.255.255.128


Thanks for your help,
