this isn't really a -stable question, but i don't see a -secure-branch
mailing list, so i didn't know where else to ask (chat?  haha right.)

just upgraded a fileserver here to the latest 4.8 (p8).

FreeBSD eng.sfo.televoke.net 4.8-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p8 #14:
Tue Sep 23 17:30:45 PDT 2003
mike@eng.sfo.televoke.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ENG  i386

everything came up and seemed to start fine.  i then noticed squid
couldn't reach the 'net -- and neither could anything else.  it appears
the default route wasn't added after the reboot (`netstat -rn|grep
default` == null).  checking rc.conf,

defaultrouter="my.gw.ip.addr"

which didn't change during the upgrade.  nothing in UPDATING wrt route or
other oddities.  did i miss something, or did this only happen on my box?
just want to know before i start upgrading the rest of 'em.

thanks,
