I have the following /etc/rc.conf:
----------
network_interfaces="rl0 lo0"
ifconfig_rl0="inet 203.2.73.2  netmask 255.255.255.0"
hostname="fang.mencon.com.au"
defaultrouter="203.2.73.1"
nfs_server_enable="YES"
nfs_client_enable="YES"
xntpd_enable="YES"
sshd_enable="YES"
lpd_enable="YES"
inetd_enable="YES"
ipv6_enable="YES"
linux_enable="NO"
-----------
When my machine boots, I see a message "route add default 203.2.73.1" 
displayed on the console. However, when I try to ping an address outside my 
LAN, I get "no route to host". If I then manually do "route add default 
203.2.73.1", it all starts working. I'm running -current as of a few days 
ago. Any clues??

Thanks,
	Graham
