As far as I interpret the log, there is something sent from the printer (which is 192.168.21.92) to the system, which makes it complain. I have about 70 machine on three NICs on the system running routed (PCs, MACs, HPs, SGIs, Suns, HP-Printers, and of course, FreeBSD machines), but 192.168.21.92 is the only Kyocera Printer. Is it possible that just the Kyocera is doing something strange about what routed complains? And, I can see many host routes created, but the complains are only for 192.168.21.92. Unfortunately, I use routed to distribute my routes so I don't have to create static routes on my other machines. Maybe, this effect would be gone when running gated, but I still haven't had time to figure out how to configure it... -Andre
