gated of RH5.0
Warning: Do not use gated of the new RH5.0.
I didn't see the problem at any errata of RH5.0 (so it's mine...).
I did the fatal mistake and agreed to install gated (including its
automatic invocation). I had severe routing problems (i.e. most of
the time there was no routing at all). "rpm -e" the gated package
doesn't help, so if anybody else did this mistake (or is going to do
it :-), do the following (after deleting the gated package by "-e"):
1. Enter into the /etc/rc.d/rc[345].d directories
2. In each of them you will find K*routed file.
3. Rename this file by replacing the "K" by "S".
4. Reboot.
This solved all my problems. Before giving up gated, I tried almost
anything, including replacing the kernel (now I have 2.0.33).
And in general: During the installation you are asked what daemons
you want to be invoked automatically. DO NOT ADD ANYTHING WHICH ITS
DEFAULT IS "NO", UNLESS YOU ARE SURE WHAT IS ITS ROLE!
