System: NetBSD damogran.agala.org 1.3_ALPHA NetBSD 1.3_ALPHA (GENERIC) #0: Sun Nov 2 18:57:16 EST 1997 chopps@yahoo.emich.edu:/e/release-1-3/src/sys/arch/amiga/compile/GENERIC amiga


>Description:
	
	The defaultroute option of pppd does not add the default route
	to the routing table and causes trouble with the route command.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
	Type "route show", start pppd with the option defaultroute and
	type "route show" again. The route command hangs while trying
	to display the routes. Ping to a host on the other side of the
	ppp connection seams to hang, too. But "route show" and ping work
	after adding the default route manually with the route command.

	/etc/ppp/options:
	auth

	/etc/ppp/peers/tuc:
	tty00 76800 crtscts
	noauth
	connect 'chat -f /etc/ppp/chat-tuc'
	lock
	defaultroute
	deflate 15
	name infjb

	/usr/sbin/pppd call tuc

>Fix:
	
	Good question.
