Hi All,

I have a question on my routing table. I recently reinstalled, and my
routing table changed. Please look at this:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0
lo
default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
eth0

I do not recognize the IP 169.254.0.0. Where is that coming from? It
goes nowhere??

Please help.....

Arthur
