I need a routing guru, I'm not that good a routing. This is my problem:
got a machine conneted via VPN to our network with an IP of 192.168.0.200

I have to subnets connected to my switch,
the following machine can ping my 192.168.0.200 address
IP ###.###.20.144, mask 255.255.255.224, gateway ###.###.20.129

I also have a subnet with ###.###.44.*
this machine cannot see the 192.168.0.200 machine
IP ###.###.44.144, mask 255.255.255.224, gateway ###.###.44.129

How can I add a rounte on the ###.###.44.144 to see the 192.168.0.200 machine?

Thanks in advance

technically, you need to seperate the subnets with a router. The router will then foward packets destined to the other subnet via a static route in the routers routing table.

There is a router between them. and it does allow the ###.###.44.* to see the ###.###.20.* but since the 192.168.0.200 is physically connected to the ###.###.20.* it cannot be seen by ###.###.44.*.

I need to know how to add a route on the computer itself rather thatn the router

if one computer is physically connected to another via xover cable, that is direct connect.

you will have to add a static route to ###.###.44.129 that will tell it what interface on the router 192.168.0.200 is on. The best way is to add a dynamic routing protocol(all routers today have RIP). You will have to enable it on all your routers. This will help you update all of your routes.
