Hiyall, We are experiencing this bizarre problem on our machines, running 2.2.8-STABLE... Here's a simple mud-map of the links concerned: Cisco | | defiant (ed0)---------(ed1)odyssey | | modem | | saturnv Now, when saturnv's link drops, there is a delay for it to be re-established. However, in the meantime, if any packets are transmitted by defiant, intended for saturnv, defiant adds the route: saturnv link#1 to it's routing table. This unfortunately, overrides it's default route to the Cisco router. The only method I've found to fix this problem, after it occurrs, is to use 'route delete xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', where xxx is the IP of saturnv. Has this behaviour ever been observed, and is there any known workaround/solution to prevent it? Many thanks. Regards, d.
