It's not in the same subnet but works when I add a route of .. route add -net 0.0.0.0 netmask 0.0.0.0 dev eth0 metric 1.
Thats how I'm able to email you this email (grin) But I think you are right when it comes to the interfaces file just asking for gateway= xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. I've always had to put in the whole route statement. but now it just skips it. Anyone know what file I can include the above route statement so it will load on bootup?
