I decided to switch from ISDN to DSL, which meant that I got a new ISP
and new IPs. I have 4 machines Ultrix, VMS cluster, NT and Tru64 4.0d
on a lan. In order to mimize the disruption I decided to bring one
machine at a time over to the new IPs. On the lan I had an ISDN router
which was the old gateway and I added a DSL modem/bridge to a new gateway.
I made what I thought were the necessary modifications 4.0d and it seemed
to work so I next did the same for VMS. Now if I do a traceroute from
VMS to Unix it takes one hop without going through the new gateway;
however, if do the reverse from unix it goes out the old gateway onto the
net and through the new gateway into VMS. Unix is running DNS and I
rebuilt all the tables, defined the gateway in /etc/gateways. I have
grepped through the entire /etc to figure out where it is picking up the
old gateway, without luck. Does anybody have any ideas? How do you
display the routing tables, I can't remember and man does not enlighten
me?
If I do a traceroute from Unix to the Ultrix machine which still has the
old IP it goes through the new gateway. If I do the same from VMS it goes
through the old gateway. The routing tables on VMS (Multinet) have only
the new gateway as default route.
This shouldn't be that difficult
