Thanks for trying to understand my question...  My problem description wasn't
very exact:

Your suggestion helps control another subnet with my dhcpd.  That's not what I
am trying to do.  I just want to tell the clients on my one dhcpd controlled
network (10.0.0.0/24) to go through different routers, depending on the
destination network.
