to 9.0, I found my internet connection didn't work. I checked my
firewall rules, resolv.conf, all messages files, etc. and couldn't
see anything wrong.
I eventually discovered that the default route was not being set to
point to my ISP, and I had to set it manually. This is something
that always worked in previous versions, but doesn't work in mdk9.0.
Now that I know what the problem is, I can set it quite easily each
time, although it is a nuisance. But other family members (who DON'T
know the root password, and are not so computer literate) would not
be able to do this. (Yes, I know I could create a suid script for
them, or something similar, but I don't really want to do this kind
of hack.)
Is this a bug, or is it just a configuration issue? If the latter,
what should I do?
