Hi all. I am interested in running a local httpd server here on my small
ethernet network. One of the PC's is also connected via ppp to the net.
When I type the IP address of my local web server, it hunts for it out on
the internet.. How can I get it to look locally first? This is my
current route -n config:
route -n
Kernel routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window Use Iface
153.2.164.110 * 255.255.255.255 UH 1500 0 0 ppp0
192.107.200.6 * 255.255.255.255 UH 1500 0 0 eth0
192.107.200.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 1500 0 9 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 3584 0 3 lo
default 153.2.164.110 * UG 1500 0 6 ppp0
As you can see, my default route is on the net, but my IP address is
192.107.200.4, and the local httpd server is 192.107.200.6. I tried to
add a route to it, but I think I'm still missing something (ip aliasing?)
Thanks much,
Dave Wreski
