Scott,

	As a work around, why not try this:

	oddnet--oddgw--ethernet--p4200--backbone-->ROW

	Add a second IP address to the P4200 (ethernet side) and to
the oddgw (same side) and change the static route to indicate that the
route to oddnet is via the new address in the oddgw.  The end result
is:

		1) RIP out via ethernet (old address).
		2) Route via new address in oddgw.

	We realize that this is going to introduce an extra hop for
traffic destined for oddnet which originates on the ethernet, but is
the result of the work around and appears to be unavoidable when
operating incompatible machines.

	Let me know how it works.


Best regards,
