I installed Windows NT 4.0 Server, SP6a on a server with 2 NICs. One NIC is on a 10 network and the other has a public IP address. For some reason during the install, the routes were not setup properly. The route for 255.255.255.255 has a gatewayof my 10 network NIC and not my public nic. Also, there is no route like the following: xxx.xxx.xxx.255 it is missing. When I go to add that route, I get the error: The route addition failed: 87 This is the sytax I am using:
route add -p 198.55.74.255 mask 255.255.255.255 198.55.74.150 metric 1
when I try to add the route for 255.255.255.255 I get the error: route: bad destination address 255.255.255.255 This is the syntax I am using
route add -p 255.255.255.255 mask 255.255.255.255198.55.74.150 metric 1
Right now, I can not access anything past my router with the statements as they currently stand. I have searched microsofts web site and tech net for help and have come up dry. Is there a way to fix this, if so, how? Also I have tried the change command with route and that failed also. Thank you for your help.
