I have a 5 computers. Two of them are directly connected to a Belkin
Router. The 3 other computers are connected to a Linksys Router that
is connected to the Belkin router. How do I communicate (specifcally
SFTP) from a computer on the Belkin Router to one of the computers on
the Linksys router?

Some more specific details in case it helps.

Belkin Router IP: 192.168.2.1
Belkin Connected Computer IP: 192.168.2.3
Linksys Router IP: 192.168.2.5
IP computers connected to
Linksys see Linksys router as: 192.168.1.1
Linksys Connnected Computer IP: 192.168.1.100

Trying to connect from 192.168.2.3 to 192.168.1.100.

--Thanks in advance.

The Belkin router needs a route for 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.2.5.

My stupid Belkin router doesn't have an advanced routing feature that
allows me to do this. Is there anyway to do it from the host? --Plus,
the computer connected to the Belkin is Windows Xp. (All other
computers are FreeBSD).

Use the "ROUTE" command on the host.

Thanks for the help Barry. Just had another stupid question that I
hoped you could help with.

I tried your suggestion of using route on the host but I must be doing
somethign wrong.

I tried (on Windows XP):

route ADD 192.168.1.0 MASK 255.255.255.0 198.168.2.5

and it didnt work. Any suggestions?

First, please don't top-post.

Is the Linksys router also a firewall and NAT? You need to turn off its
firewall and NAT features, so it's just a plain router.
