It's primary purpose is to enable me to FTP backups from an offsite machine, but I would also like to use it for some web traffic.

Disabling static routing and enabling "gated" might give you a similar feature/option, but I am not that positive whether you can achieve it that specific. Can the routers filter off traffic by port numbers? If so, a combination of gated and filtering off traffic by port number(protocol), might be another option.

TCPware does have what we call dead gateway detection where if IP believes the default router (gateway) has gone down, it will use another default gateway if it has been told about it. You can add routes for particular hosts or networks to use the other router by adding routes. If the routers talk something like RIPv2 or Router Discovery you could configure Gated to have routes automaticly added.

Without a defined route back I can't get a response. With the default gateway set to the 2nd router it works ok (but the traffic in through the main router then stops). I'll probably use the firewall to restrict incoming traffic at some stage, but initially just allow any. I have just tried setting an additional IP on my host, redirecting the address translation on the firewall to the new address and defining a route using: add route /host /gateway, but that appears not to have solved it.

In other words, if traffic comes in through the "first" router, it should go back out that way, and if it comes in through the "second" one, that's the way it should return. The difficult thing is, how do you prevent traffic coming in the "first" router and leaving via the "second" one? Or for that matter, what's to prevent it creating a loop, so other internet traffic tries to come through your path (ouch!)? I know I've set up something like this before, but I'm trying to remember exactly how. It normally means that the routers must coordinate routing information with the host and each other. That's either RIP, or GateD as others have already mentioned. To make it work, you might have to make sure your two routers block traffic between themselves, but allow communication to and from your host, so it will have two distinct paths. The trouble with that is, how does the host determine which path to take for an originating connection, outbound to the Internet? One more thing, you said the DSL connection was for FTP backups from a remote machine. I'm assuming this is located at a site that has its own Internet connection of some sort, right? Otherwise you couldn't be using it for "some web traffic", unless the web traffic itself was internal to your network (both sites). I'm just trying to get a better idea of the overall network, and what you're trying to accomplish. Good luck, and let us know how it goes...

Without a defined route back I can't get a response. With the default gateway set to the 2nd router it works ok (but the traffic in through the main router then stops). I'll probably use the firewall to restrict incoming traffic at some stage, but initially just allow any. I have just tried setting an additional IP on my host, redirecting the address translation on the firewall to the new address and defining a route using: add route /host /gateway, but that appears not to have solved it.

Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later. Access is denied. CAUSE This behavior occurs if both of the following conditions are true: * The .xml file is attached to a Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Outlook Express e-mail message. -and- * You attempt to open the .xml file attachment either by double-clicking the attachment or by right-clicking the attachment and then clicking Open. When you open an attachment in an HTML or XML-formatted mail message, the attachment is placed in the Temporary Internet Files folder on your computer's hard disk, and Internet Explorer opens the file from this location. Internet Explorer is unable to load .xml files from the Temporary Internet Files folder, and as a result, when you attempt to open an .xml file attachment from an Outlook or Outlook Express e-mail message, you receive the message described in the "Symptoms" section of this article. WORKAROUND To work around this issue, save the .xml file attachment to another location on your hard disk, and then open the file from this location. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Start Outlook or Outlook Express, and then open the message that contains the .xml file attachment that you want to open. 2. Right-click the attachment, and then click Save As. 3. In the Save Attachment dialog box, specify a name and a location in which to save the file, and then click Save. 4. Close the message window. 5. Start Windows Explorer, and then locate the .xml file that you saved in step 3. 6. Double-click the file to open it. STATUS Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. MORE INFORMATION The Temporary Internet Files folder (Internet Explorer cache) is the location on your hard disk in which Web pages and other files, such as graphics, are stored as you view them. This feature speeds up the display of pages that you frequently visit or have already viewed, because Internet Explorer can access and open them from your hard disk instead of from the Web. -----Original Message----- From: Greeley, Tim D.

Anyway, thanks for the chance to look at AM. It *is* a great tool, even=20 if it didn't help in my case. cu, Martin --=20 OpenVMS DCL | Martin Vorlaender | VMS & WNT programmer | work: mv@pdv-systeme.de The Original .COM | http://www.pdv-systeme.de/users/martinv/ | home: martin@radiogaga.harz.de ================================================================================ Archive-Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 05:27:08 -0400 Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 11:25:56 +0200 From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?=22Vorl=E4nder=2C_Martin=22?= Reply-To: Info-TCPware@process.com Subject: RE: RPC issues To: info-tcpware@process.com Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Looking at the problem from another view: The RPC server that uses the RPC XDR routines does all that I need, *except* the ability to serve multiple clients. Is there a technique to implement an RPC server that can serve multiple clients using the RPC XDR routines?
