Hello, I'm having a doozy of a problem keeping a default route set up on a box I just upgraded today from 4.8-RC to 4.9-PR. After the upgrade, the machine will come up but quickly it will lose it's default route. The only way I can keep it from dropping the default route now is to continuously ping across it. If I stop for more than about 15 seconds, it'll get removed from the netstat -rn results. I don't mind researching possible means to fix it, but it's kinda hard when you have to hammer someone else's IP with pings to keep the link up or type "route add default xx.xxx.xxx.xx" every 15 seconds in order to surf... Are there any ways I can nail a route up without giving FreeBSD the ability to back it out automagically so I can fix this long enough to fix it the right way? Here's the relavent info: FreeBSD calefaction.clickcom.com 4.9-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE #2: Wed Sep 24 16:36:22 EDT 2003 user@calefaction.clickcom.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/CALEFACTION i386 Default kernel except for "options QUOTA, options IPFILTER and options IPFILTER_LOG" rc.conf: network_interfaces="xl0 lo0 sis0" gateway_enable="YES" defaultrouter="209.198.22.1" firewall_type="OPEN" Ipfilter rules (for now) pass in all pass out all Ipnat rules (for now) map xl0 xx.xxx.xxx.0/24 -> 209.198.22.19/32 Thanks in advance, John Straiton jks@ clickcom.com Clickcom, Inc 704-365-9970x101
