I am trying to get Linux to peer with OS/2 and windoze. I have a Linux
book guiding me through.

When I execute the route command, the result is as follows:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
Iface
st21s.atlantic. *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0
eth0
localhost.local *               255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0
lo
192.168.0.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0
eth0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0
lo
default         192.168.0.254   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0
eth0
default         192.168.0.254   0.0.0.0         UG    1      0        0
eth0

The book example looks rather different, and when I execute the command,
it takes a very long time to complete, unlike the OS/2 counterpart,
which completes instantly. Is this long time normal for Linux, over a
minute?

Anyone see a problem in any of my Linux configuration files:

/etc/hosts:

    R=$(cat /etc/redhat-release)

    case "_$arch" in
            _a*) a="an";;

    esac
    
    NUMPROC=`egrep -c "^cpu[0-9]+" /proc/stat`
    if [ "$NUMPROC" -gt "1" ]; then
        SMP="$NUMPROC-processor "
        if [ "$NUMPROC" = "8" -o "$NUMPROC" = "11" ]; then
            a="an"
        else
            a="a"
        fi
    fi

    # This will overwrite /etc/issue at every boot.  So, make any
changes you
    # want to make to /etc/issue here or you will lose them when you
reboot.
    echo "" > /etc/issue
    echo "$R" >> /etc/issue
    echo "Kernel $(uname -r) on $a $SMP$(uname -m)" >> /etc/issue

    cp -f /etc/issue /etc/issue.net
    echo >> /etc/issue
