I need help setting up a basic routing between two nic's on my CentOS 
desktop. I thought I'd understood the basics, but ... I don,t want a nat 
router, just packets forwarded back and fort.

This is what I thought would do the trick, but didn't. Can someone 
please give me some pointers or links so I can get this right.

# echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
# route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth1
# route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.150 eth1
#
# route -n
