It's where the traffic goes if it cannot go to one of the routes you have defined already. For most small nets that means everything off site. Use:- sudo route to see the contents of the table. Use:- sudo route -n if your name resolution is not working. For my machine it looks like this:- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ sudo route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface csnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default kerberos.csnet 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Sorry about the lines being screwed up by the mail user agent. -- CS
