Re: routing question

I thought I *had* set up a default gateway. Reading the rout(8) man page, it says this:

 gw GW  route  packets  via a gateway.  NOTE: The specified gateway must
        be reachable first. This usually means that you have to set up a
        static  route  to  the  gateway  beforehand.  If you specify the
        address of one of your local interfaces,  it  will  be  used  to
        decide about the interface to which the packets should be routed
        to. This is a BSDism compatibility hack.

After reading the above, I tried both:

	route add default gw <own-ip-addr>
and
	route add default gw <router-ip>

where <router-ip> is of course the IP of network 16.140.128's router (one of them), and this lets me onto the wire, but only for the local network. I all the other networks are still unreachable.

I'm unable to reach local networks from the new fc3 box, that I've never had trouble with using other unixes (or Slackware for that matter). It's been my experience that simply kicking off routed or gated was all it took to make the world accessible. FC3 is different!

We have several networks here at work and my question is, how do I set up the routing table to reach them? Example:

16.140.160/24  <-- fc3 box is on this one
16.47.32/24
16.32.176/24
