Folks,
I had to reinstall my system after a crash. I had most everything saved
except for my gated.conf file. Now I'm stuck and I can't tell if it's me
or gated! Gated is shutting down perfectly good routes and I don't know
why. Here is the info:
FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE
GateD from packages.
machine has two cards, one of the cards has an alias created like so:
ifconfig de1 inet 199.232.137.65 mask 255.255.255.192 alias
Gated is running with this config:
ospf yes {
backbone {
networks {
199.232.136.0 mask 255.255.255.0;
199.232.137.0 mask 255.255.255.0;
};
interface de0;
};
};
export proto ospfase {
proto direct {
199.232.136.160 mask 255.255.255.224;
199.232.137.0 mask 255.255.255.0;
};
};
All routing and networking is fine right after I start gated. However
after a couple of mins. gated shuts down the two routes on de1. That
ofcourse kills the broadcasts on de0 which leads to the internet.
Here are the log entries:

The Address already in use entry puzzles me. That address is the alias
address and everything worked perfectly on the previous install until the
disk fried.
What bugs me is that everything works great for the first two mins. All
routes are propagated as required. Then it drops the routes on de1.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Craig
