Yes, my current kernel and all configuration files are the ones I 
have been using for the past  5-6 months and I have had no problems 
with routing.  My router just up and quit routing. 
This morning it was routing, tonight it's not.  Tonight was the first 
time in a couple of weeks that I sat down at the console - so no, I 
didn't change something and forget about it. And yes, I am the only 
one that has access to it.

thanks for the reply, though.
