well, ubuntu is right. What network were you trying to connect to? A cable ISP?
I guess it is right by principle. By principle a network gateway should belong to the network. But windows takes care of this discrepancy very smoothly. I guess it must be assuming a direct route to the gateway. On similar lines if a gateway is specified as being outside the network then it wouldn't be that bad an idea add a -host route to the gateway.
I'm thinking of another little hack wherein I don't have to go through the entire "create another startup script" routine. I'll keep the list posted if it works.
