Sorry for the "not-so-thoughtful-suggestion." I just got out of bed and didn't read properly. I spoke to Nick off list. I suggested he create a file in /etc/init.d/ - #! /bin/sh route add -host 255.255.255.255 dev eth1 chmod 755 and run update-rc.d If someone has something better to add please do so. kent -- I'd really love ta wana help ya Flanders but...
