I'm having problems with the fresh install, but I don't think my issue 
is with up2date anymore.  The server in question is on the DMZ of our 
network, but other machines on the DMZ are still able to run up2date.  
Recently, I added another ip alias to the machine and that went smooth.  
But I rebooted yesterday and it came up with three default gateways?:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway   Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
X.X.X.0     0.0.0.0   255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0   255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0   0.0.0.0   255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0     X.X.X.1   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
0.0.0.0     X.X.X.1   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
0.0.0.0     X.X.X.1   0.0.0.0         UG    1      0        0 eth0

Umm...  I'm no networking wizard but that doesn't seem right at all.  
All those three gateway's at the bottom are pointing to the same place 
and what's with the 169.254.0.0 Destination?  I have other servers where 
there 's only three entries in the routing table:  the network one 
"X.X.X.0", localhost "127.0.0.0" and the default route "0.0.0.0".  

Thanks for any help...
