i also tried to establish some routs...
does i have to change the subnetsmasks of the virtual ip adresses?

i tried this:

Server (192.168.1.2, 255.255.255.0; 192.168.3.1, 255.255.0.0):
route add 192.168.0.0   mask 255.255.255.0   192.168.3.1
route add 192.168.0.255 mask 255.255.255.255 192.168.3.1

Client(192.168.0.2, 255.255.255.0; 192.168.3.3, 255.255.0.0):
route add 192.168.1.0   mask 255.255.255.0   192.168.3.3
route add 192.168.1.255 mask 255.255.255.255 192.168.3.3


in fact, can you say me what's wrong?
