OK..it was not in my routing table.. I manually added
it using route add -net 192.168.1.100 netmask
255.255.255.255 gw 192.168.1.1 

then checked the table to make sure it was there.
Attempted to ping and still 100% packet loss.

I have been scouring the Net trying to find a decent
document on setting up a home lan but most I find are
for RH 5.2 or 6.2  and I know that I could use parts
but not all because of the way IP masq is now...  

other than the MAN and HowTos that I have already read
and missed something in do you know of any other
documentation??
