Hello, we had the same problem (too many routes/if). Konstantin Reznitsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> came up with what turned out to be the solution: "The problem may really be that you have a too wide network range." On our AppleTalk router (Helios on a Sun) we had defined a network range of 1-60000. Setting this to 1-200 was all I needed to do to make atalkd on the Linux box start.
