You only need routed/gated if you have than one interface and you are a router. If you have a single segment you don't need a default route and if you have multiple segments and/or connections (PPP, SLIP, whatever) then you always have a router to put a defaultroute to. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD keltia 2.0-BUILT-19950503 #3: Wed May 3 19:53:04 MET DST 1995
