Hmmm... what led to this idea was: people who use "route print" to print the routing table in "other" OSes need to be informed how to print the routing table under FreeBSD. If that's really true, some how I have a feeling they would already know about "netstat -r" (which AFAIK is pretty much ubiquitous among Unicies.) Is it just me, who thinks this? -Paul.
