Guys,
I need a bit of help with a section of a project I'm doing in work.
I have a laptop, that has 2 network connections, and I'm trying to reach another IP address. Is it possible to specify which TCP/IP route the packets take based on the IP of each hop? For example...
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.1
192.168.1.1 to a.a.a.a
b.b.b.b to c.c.c.c
c.c.c.c to ..............
Cheers,
Phil

Yep.
Open up command prompt and type "exit <IP address here>"

This is wrong.
The command you are looking for is "route"
But they will have to be on different subents.
Route /? will give you more advice help.

You're talking about source routing, but what exactly are your trying to achieve?

OK...
Laptops are to be used on a 3G connection, but I'm using Hamachi as a secture VPN tunnel to a server.
When I then use telnet, I need to make sure that it takes the path through the hamachi virtual adaptor, rather than the 3G connection to the Internet. The destination address is an internal interface

So you have this situation:
Laptop --- 3G Connection --- Work (Private IP address)--- Telnet Application
|_________VPN (Private IP)_________|
If this is hte case then the VPN adapter should deal with the routing. The reason for this is the VPN adapter will have an IP address that is local to the internal connection at work.

Correct, but the telnet application is on a different address system again.
The VPN is 5.x.x.x, but the telnet app is on another internal system on 196.103.x.x
It works internally with some routing adn firewall rules.
The telnet app is installed on the laptop with a destination IP of 196.103.x.x, so it doesn't know to go through the 5.x.x.x, it looks across the internet for it.

Sounds like you may have a routing problem internaly.
Other than that route add on a windows box is command you are after.
