hello ednix,

the RTO means that your 10.1.x.x and 10.7.x.x network can reach your DNS - but they cant receive the reply because (look carefully from your post) your DNS server dont have the route to reach your 10.1.x.x/10.7.x.x network.
you specify /16 - that means from the posted route 10.1.x.x/10.7.x.x network wasnt included in the route.

do create the route.

hi,

> ...server dont have the route to reach your 10.1.x.x/10.7.x.x network.

yes, that's right. and that is exactly what i was asking for in my original post...on the second NIC in the FreeBSD machine, I need to set a default gateway to 10.10.10.1. However, the rc.conf file only seems to allow me to set one default router and that config entry currently sets the default route for the first NIC. how do I set a default route for the second NIC in the rc.conf file?

hello ednix,

you dont create a default route.
(google around to understand default route usage).
just create the same route command to network 10.1.x.x/10.7.x.x on the DNS server.

route -net 10.1.x.x bla bla bla...

hi stdout,

okay, thanks. i'll do that. i just thought that i could set it up through rc.conf or at least through ifconfig args through rc.conf. apparently not. thanks for your help.

regards
