Understood...and no once the 192.168.11.13 is assigned I can't see the virtual server with ping to 10.10.10.5 nor will it resolve. The ip assigned to my nic from the router is different from the bridged network ip assigned automatically from the server as the default gateway ip. If memory serves correctly the actual ip assigned my nic from the router is 192.168.1.9 and the one picked up as the gateway ip is actually 192.168.1.1 which is in fact the ip I have assigned in the router as the default gateway in windows 8. No I have as yet to set the rules on the server, or assign routes...If the gateway works (it does with PCLinuxOS ip assigned is 10.10.10.6 the starting pool ip from the server) then all is good and my expectation of dhcp implemented in the other two linux distributions *should* pick up the same way as PCLinuxOS. I also tried assigning the 10. ip statically for Ubuntu/Fedora and it still won't route through the to/through the server, or anywhere else for that matter.
As for Robert I have no idea why you are on my post(s).
