Hi All:

I recently reboot the machine (use dhcp) and I get this from route -n 
command

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use 
Iface
192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 eth1
12.237.96.128   0.0.0.0         255.255.255.255 UH    0      0        0 eth0
192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth1
127.0.0.0       0.0.0.0         255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
0.0.0.0         12.237.96.129   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

and I get this from ifconfig command:

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:BA:F3:D3:06
          inet addr:12.237.96.141  Bcast:255.255.255.255  
Mask:255.255.255.128
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:13610 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:8186 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:24 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:11 Base address:0xf8e0
...

Questions here:

I did run netconfig, and removed all the information I put before I reboot 
the box.
why do i get a Destination IP 12.237.96.128 on route and get 12.237.96.141 
on ifconfig command?
so, what is my 'real' ip and gwtway? Does the route table correct?
I used to get the same ip on both commands before.

thanks.
