i would like to thank both Martin A. Brown and Julian Anastasov for bringing this issue of adding gatwayed routes and default routes in non-main routing tables up, and for solving it, since the problem was initially mine. i have looked, quickly, in the LARTC HOWTO and didnt see an explantion of the onlink feature, perhaps one of you could write something about this and send it to Bert Hubert (bert.hubert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) so he can put it in the HOWTO. best regards, tomas bonnedahl
