[ale] Routing not working on startup

[mgm at atsga.com (Mike Millson)]

I am not able to access the internet after startup or after "service network
stop" / "service network start".

netstat -rn looks like this:

Destination     Gateway     Iface
===================================
192.168.1.0      0.0.0.0      eth1
216.77.224.0     0.0.0.0      eth0
127.0.0.0        0.0.0.0      lo
0.0.0.0          192.168.1.1  eth1
0.0.0.0          216.77.224.1  eth0

netstat -r looks like this:

Destination     Gateway     Iface
===================================
192.168.1.0      0.0.0.0      eth1
216.77.224.0     0.0.0.0      eth0
127.0.0.0        0.0.0.0      lo
default          mmillson.bellsouth.net  eth1
default          216.77.224.1  eth0

Then I go into control panel and deacticate eth0, then activate it, and I
can access the Internet.

netstat -rn looks like this:

Destination     Gateway     Iface
===================================
192.168.1.0      0.0.0.0      eth1
216.77.224.0     0.0.0.0      eth0
127.0.0.0        0.0.0.0      lo
0.0.0.0          216.77.224.1  eth0
0.0.0.0          192.168.1.1  eth1

netstat -r looks like this:

Destination     Gateway     Iface
===================================
192.168.1.0      0.0.0.0      eth1
216.77.224.0     0.0.0.0      eth0
127.0.0.0        0.0.0.0      lo
default          adsl-77-224-1.atl.bellsouth.net  eth0
default          192.168.1.1  eth1

I can see that after "service network stop" / "service network start" the
default route is sending traffic to my internal network gateway. After
control-panel deactivate/activate eth0, the default route is correctly
sending traffic to bellsouth's gateway.

What do I need to do to my network settings to have a good routing table on
startup?

Thank you,
Mike
