What >a silly idea! Please excuse me for the novice question, but... doesn't FreeBSD do the same thing if you're using routed instead of gated? According to routed(8) it does that whenever it detects multiple interfaces or a point-to-point link up. And an even more novice question... what's wrong with this? What should it do if you're using routed? >Seriously, dump routed, and use GateD if you need. Maybe the updated >routed in -current is worth the while, i haven't tried it. It's a >total rework by the author (Michael VanLoon, if i'm not mistaken). If things "work" with routed, then what sort of advantages can one get by moving to gated instead? -- Raymond L.
