Theres this VPN software which can allow me to create a VPN with each other. Now, I am trying to bridge 2 NIC's and I came across this in the manual: If you need to communicate with further computers located in the partners network, you have to set static IP routes. In order to do so advanced skills in administering Windows® networks are essential. How do I set up static routes??????? Kute Punk Kay Pee Kay Tee Pren Tiss Kute Punk Kay Pee Kay Tee Pren Tiss

This is for Windows Server 2003. What about if both my PC's are running Windows XP Professional? Kute Punk Kay Pee Kay Tee Pren Tiss Kute Punk Kay Pee Kay Tee Pren Tiss

Do some research on the route command available in a command prompt window. You should be able to add the route (or routes) you need to, even in XP.

Use of ip command By using the ip command, you can setup static route. For example, to display current routing table you can type command:# ip route showOutput: 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.1 192.168.1.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.2 default via 192.168.1.254 dev eth0You can add static route using following command: ip route add {NETWORK} via {IP} dev {DEVICE} For example network 192.168.55.0/24 available via 192.168.1.254:# ip route add 192.168.55.0/24 via 192.168.1.254 dev eth1Alternatively, use old good route command:# route add -net 192.168.55.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.254 dev eth1The drawback of 'ip' or 'route' command is that, when Linux reboots it will forget static routes. So store them in configuration file. Red Hat/Fedora Linux Static route file # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0Output: GATEWAY0=192.168.1.254 NETMASK0=255.255.255.0 ADDRESS0=192.168.55.0 GATEWAY1=10.164.234.112 NETMASK1= 255.255.255.240 ADDRESS1=10.164.234.132 Debian Linux static routes file # cat /etc/network/interfaceOutput: auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.254 up route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.2.1 down route del -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.2.1 i hope this didn't confuse you at all Alysa East

Okay, I managed to set up a Windows 2000 Server system instead of a Windows XP Professional System. Here is what I got: Static Route Configuration IP Addresses Windows XP Side (Other Network) Now, what do I need to type in the "static routing" to bridge the 10's network with the 192's network?
