nonsensically i added ifconfig tap0 down to /etc/init.d/rc.local and added route add net 0.0.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.255 gw 192.168.1.1 to the same... i can ping whatever i want now! i know this isnt the right way to do this, though... where are eth0 and tap0 initiated from...?
how about adding to the routing table the right way? thank you, shawn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! GeoCities - quick and easy web site hosting, just $8.95/month. http://geocities.yahoo.com/ps/info1
