Can you actually use that route, e.g. if you ping keltia does it work? Do you know what program generated that route? I'd be more suspicious of the program that installed the route than I would be of netstat. With properly-formed routes as created by the "route" command, it doesn't do this, even though the gateway address is not resolvable: % netstat -r Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire ... 126.5.4/24 13.0.211.250 UGSc 0 0 de0 126.7.8.9 13.0.211.251 UGHS 0 0 de0 Bill
