Dear All,

I've setup a firewall with bsd/386 installed on a pentium machine. My 
default route is pointed to a router (Cisco router). This configuration 
has been worked fine for awhile. Recently, every time when we reboot the 
firewall, the defualt routing entry to the route will disappear after 
awhile. It causes the disconnection problem to the outside world.

Every time after rebooting the firewall system, we have to manually 
adding the default route to the router. After manually adding the entry, 
it works very fine.

Does anybody have any ideas on this problem?

Thanks in advance

Mimi Lam
