   I have two FreeBSD boxes here (2.1.0 and 2.1.0-SNAP-something), and 
now and then, they both have a neat habit of forgetting what their 
default gateway is and being unable to send packets outside of the local 
ethernet.  Is there a quick fix to this?  (I have a cron job that runs 
and resets it, but that seems like a bit of an akward workaround), or is 
it due to some subtle misconfiguration on my part?

   The only thing I can think of is that some other host is sending 
routing information that's not correct, but... er, I don't _think_ that's 
the case. :)

   Anyway, any information/guesses/etc would be much appreciated.
