That's not the behavior we're seeing on Hardy fresh installs. According to RFC 1122, multiple default routes *must* be supported, but in practice that's honored more in the breach than in the observance. (In fairness, the avahi protocol at least tries to implement some adherence; many networking implementations don't. ) I stand by my contention that a "default" route is nonsensical for link-local interfaces, but perhaps a more robust solution to the multiple default routes issue is in order. -- Loye Young Isaac & Young Computer Company Laredo, Texas http://www.iycc.net ** Attachment added: "unnamed" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15570908/unnamed -- avahi-autoipd gives me an useless default route https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/99489 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
