The problem was not in my configuration, that had worked for 9 months, it was that apt-get had trashed ifup! Thanks.

Re: networking broken (ifup, route add)
oops, 10.10.10.0 != 10.10.0.0 according to routing tables, ifconfing should give you an address like 10.10.10.x is this correct? -- Good observation, error on my part. I corrected; omega:/local# cat netset # # emergency network setup ifconfig\ eth0 10.10.10.109 \ netmask 255.255.0.0\ broadcast 10.10.255.255 ifconfig\ localhost 127.0.0.1 \ netmask 255.255.0.0\ broadcast 10.10.255.255 route add default gw 10.10.0.1 This fixes routing (Thanks!), but localhost is still broken. and ifup... omega:/local# route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface localnet* 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default 10.10.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG0 0 0 eth0 omega:/local# ifup -a /etc/network/interfaces: Function not implemented ifup: couldn't read interfaces file /etc/network/interfaces omega:/local# THe problem came in because trying to work around the broken ifup, I made this manual setup, which I did wrong.

networking broken (ifup, route add)
Help; after an apt-get fiasco, I seem mostly restored, but networking is still broken. (Thanks for other hints on those recoveries) Symptoms: 1) I can manually add etho, but not localhost, omega:/etc/apt# route add default gw 10.10.0.1 SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable 2) ifup -a fails: omega:/etc/apt#ifup -a /etc/network/interfaces: Function not implemented ifup: couldn't read interfaces file /etc/network/interfaces omega:/etc/apt# Thus, routing is broken, and I have lots of subsidiary resulting problems. Suggestions? Gregory Gregory Guthrie [EMAIL PROTECTED] (641)472-1125Fax: -1103
