Hi Rick,

Right now, the LAN0 interface is connecting solely to a port on a PIX
device. It is configured as 10.101.66.118, with net mask 255.255.255.0. My
PIX IP is 10.101.66.139. What I tried to do is to config a route for all
traffic to 192.168.99.0 network going to the PIX. As I mentioned before, I
can ping 10.101.66.139 but route add always complain with network
unreachable error..
