It sounds like you have lots of interfaces (e.g. our web server with
>100); in this case you have to recompile gated with (e.g.) RTBIT_SIZE=8
(which gives 256 bits in the mask).  This goes in the Config file in your
private obj directory; isn't the gated config process "nice"???.

I'm running 3.6a2 if it matters.
