[.....] The latest ppp (http://www.FreeBSD.org/~brian) allows you to add! default HISADDR (not the ``!''). This will RTM_ADD a route, and if that fails, attempt to RTM_CHANGE it. The alternative with older ppps is to delete 0 add 0 0 HISADDR As far as ``putting things back'' is concerned, setup /etc/ppp/ppp.linkdown: MYADDR: add! default x.x.x.x where x.x.x.x is your router-via-the-NIC. > Thanks, > > > Brian -- Brian <brian@Awfulhak.org>, <brian@FreeBSD.org>, <brian@OpenBSD.org> <http://www.Awfulhak.org>; Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
