Just upgraded your kernel to 2.2.x? Well, there is no need to set an interface route to an network interface by hand as this is done by the kernel now. Simply remove the "route add -net ..." for loopback and other interfaces from /etc/inet.d/network This is also mentioned in Documentation/Changes, so read this documentent too. If you already read it, read it again ;) Ralf -- No sig -- no fun
