If I try to add the route with ip route instead of route, it works: # ip route add ::/0 via 2001:44b8:758e:21e3::1 Personally this doesn't bother me, I have rewritten the configuration with "up ip route add ::/0 via 2001:44b8:758e:21e3::1" which works. It does seem to deserve a bug report however. Unfortunately I am not sure if the bug is with ifupdown, route, or maybe even my kernel. # route --version net-tools 1.60 route 1.98 (2001-04-15) +NEW_ADDRT +RTF_IRTT +RTF_REJECT +I18N AF: (inet) +UNIX +INET +INET6 +IPX +AX25 +NETROM +X25 +ATALK +ECONET +ROSE HW: +ETHER +ARC +SLIP +PPP +TUNNEL +TR +AX25 +NETROM +X25 +FR +ROSE +ASH +SIT +FDDI +HIPPI +HDLC/LAPB +EUI64 -- Brian May <br...@microcomaustralia.com.au> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
