Re: Double router in a network and cached routes



I am sorry, i forget to tell that the router A is a Cisco 3620 without rip
or other routing protocols, router B, the firewall, is a Gauntlet machine,
and the client machine is a potato with kernel 2.2.19. I though that the
problem was the kernel, that was previously a 2.2.17, but with the kernel
upgrade the problem continues.

Thanks again.
