But can't the routing table hold not necessarily the machine itself, but a router the
machine knows about? you can have a gateway that matches your ip, but the destination
doesn't have to. I think a crash course in routing is in order...I can usually hack

also, in answer to your question about how netstat gets out of sync with ifconfig, you
can set stuff up explicitly with the "route" command.
