del ro 204.117.209.23

then wait for it to cycle out..

It takes a couple of minutes...

Hmm interesting...I did a fake route on a second class-C

add ro 207.24.10.180/30 207.24.9.3 10

then did a tr to 207.24.10.180

and it did...

207.24.9.1
2 192.103.75.41
3 192.103.75.42
4 192.103.75.41

and then

traceroute 192.103.75.42
traceroute to (192.103.75.42), 30 hops max
1 207.24.9.1

being too lazy to read up on network routing, I'm leaving this curiousity
as a note that it does happen...

(gosh, I spend too much time playing around...)

BTW, I've put in a request for a port 139 filter to Livingston, just in
case, you think your users will not fix the Netbios bug in WinXX...

'Sleep is but temporary death, damn I wish I were dead'

Just a thought.
