Routing.

I have a freebsd box with 16 serial connections and 5 ethernets.
Each of the serial connections are like chunks of 16 or 32 addresses
over PPP, as are the ethernet chunks of 16,32, 64 addresses.
All said, I have 1 class C plus half of another spread out over 16+5 networks.

I do all the ppp links with netmask ffffff00 regardless of what they 
really are (ffffffe0 and ffffffe8 are the most common)

I don't have ANY kind of routing problems.

I suspect someother problem was at hand or this somehow was fixed by 
an odd interaction with netbsd.
