netstat -rn gives:

 Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 40 0 0 eth0

How do i get:

192.168.0.0 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 U 40 0 0 eth0

What -- exactly -- are you trying to do?

Please, step back from this, and take a long, hard look at what you
expect to happen.  Perhaps, you will find another way . . .

The problem is that when i put http://127.0.0.1/ or http://192.168.0.1/
into mozilla, it goes thru the dialup isp instead of going
direct to my own system. When i ping either address, the time is 0.1-0.2ms
which seems that routing is working correctly. Why then does mozilla
go thru the isp to get these addresses? When i'm offline, mozilla
seems to try and access the outside connection instead of the local
apache.

It seems more like a mozilla problem.
In mozilla: Edit|Preferences...|Advanced|Proxies, i have:

  HTTP    Proxy: proxy.iprimus.com.au    Port: 8080
  SSL     Proxy: proxy.iprimus.com.au    Port: 8080
  FTP     Proxy: proxy.iprimus.com.au    Port: 8080
  Gopher  Proxy: proxy.iprimus.com.au    Port: 8080

Is port 8080 what mozilla tries to access at the isp whenever i
view a URL? What does this proxy do? I have apache set for port 80
which is maybe half the problem?
