Routing doesn't start automatically

[Andrew Perrin <clists@perrin.socsci.unc.edu>]

Greetings-

In setting up my new machine, I've run into an odd problem.  When the
machine boots, the routing table doesn't get restored correctly.  I have
to type the following:

route add 192.168.0.3 eth0
route add default gw 192.168.0.3

in order to use any networking.

Here's my /etc/network/interfaces:
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The first network card - this entry was created during the Debian
installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 192.168.0.14
        netmask 255.255.255.252
        network 192.168.0.12
        broadcast 192.168.0.15
        gateway 192.168.0.3



Any ideas?
