Um, err.... yes.  I agree it is a bad idea.  I thought I'd assigned
that to the network, not the host.  The netbase prompt asked for
"IP address range to be considered local" or something like that.
Anyway, I'm sure that I've got the gateway defined incorrectly.
I'm trying to figure out what I've done wrong in the various files
used for network config, as the gateway doesn't show when I call:
route -n

Ideas?
