Why, Mike, do I need to run routed or gated> I used to run routed on OS/2, but 
I quite when a person from IBM told me (and quite a few others) how to do 
their routing. I've never run gated at all.

There's quite a selection of his writings in my web pages.

You need a routing daemon if you have a big complicated network. Otherwise you 
set up a route or two as necessary, and a default route for everything else.
