Trying to add a route via 127.0.0.1 for tunnels

I use ssh tunnels to successfully browse my remote web servers. First I
connect via ssh. Then I configure an ssh tunnel by specifying that all
requests to a particular remote host be sent to '127.0.0.1' - the ssh
application then takes over any HTTP requests to that address and
forwards them out the tunnel. I had to add 'remotehost' to my w2k hosts
table, identifying it on the line for 127.0.0.1.
Works fine when I browse to the remote host via its hostname.
However, some of the pages on the remote server refer to additional
pages (on the same server), but specify its IP Address rather than
hostname. My PC attempts to load these private addresses directly,
rather than sending them through the tunnel.
I was hoping I could simply add a route to the private network via
127.0.0.1. For example:
route add 10.1.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 127.0.0.1 metric 1
However W2K complains "The route addition failed: The parameter is
incorrect."
Is there any way to create this type of route?
