Check to make sure you have the correct broadcast
for eth1 (maybe 63.88.193.15 ?)

I am still having a problem with the routing table on this Storm box. The
following is the /etc/network/interfaces file:

# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
iface lo inet loopback

 iface eth0 inet static
     address 192.168.1.204
     netmask 255.255.255.0
     gateway 63.88.193.129


 iface eth1 inet static
     address 63.88.193.147
     netmask 255.255.255.240
     gateway 63.88.193.129
     broadcast 63.88.193.255


The ifconfig command output is:

The route -n command output is:

 Kernel IP routing table
 Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use
 Iface
 63.88.193.144   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.240 U     0      0        0 eth1
 192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0


My question, in the interfaces file the IP for eth1 is 63.88.193.147. The
ifconfig command seems to reinforce this with the IP address of the same.
But the route command has an IP of 63.88.193.144. Where in the world does
this come from?

Can anyone help?

Thank You,
