default route normally is 0.0.0.0/0 to overwrite default you can - erase the existing an add the new one: this change is to do vice versa: an start up and shut down; so you need an installation dependend information about the default Gateway. Alternativly you can add two routes: 0.0.0.0 netmask 128.0.0.0 and 128.0.0.0 netmask 128.0.0.0 then you have routes, that overwrites the existing default. You have only to add this specific routes on openvpn up and delete on openvpn down. -- Viele Grüße Helmut Drodofsky Internet XS Service GmbH Heßbrühlstraße 15 70565 Stuttgart Geschäftsführung Dr.-Ing.
