Hi, Thanks to all who replied. There were two problems. 1. I needed to have a /erpcd/bfs/gateways file that specified a default gateway. 2. (This one I don't understand) The problem turned out to be our cisco gateway security filters. We have them set to allow tcp in only to ports 1023 & above. (Standard set up). While using the debug icmp I could see that we were sending out 'destination unreachables'. I added a filter to allow any host to talk to our annex (any port) and it works. I guess the annex does not set up its tcp connections to use ports 1023 & above like normal systems (at least ones I'm used to). Thanks again to all the answers.
