Hi,
In my rc.local file, I have the following,

echo 'starting local daemons:'
/usr/sbin/pppd &
ifconfig ed1 inet 203.1.96.200 netmask 0xffffffff alias
# put your local stuff here
# /usr/local/libexec/news/maint/newsboot
/usr/local/sbin/httpsd


Now with pppd running, and connected to the INternet via that mode,
startup shows these errors, or warnings, 

does anyone know what's happening?

Feb  8 13:44:17 ruby routed[53]: punt RTM_ADD without gateway
