Sender: bugs-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hey there. I am trying to add a static (default) route to my ISP, and continually get the error; 'writing to routing socket: Protocol not supported'. This doesn't make any sense. Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone have any clues? The command I run is; prompt% route add default sliplink where 'sliplink' is an alias for the service provider. I can't afford to upgrade to the next release, as I've been off-air for five weeks now, as a result of the last upgrade. If I run 'routed', it complains about the same error on routes it tries to add. Have I missed a kernel option or something?? I shouldn't need the 'GATEWAY' option to specify a default route. - Der
