Already tried that :) (what you quoted was the info I found on the
web).  Although I don't see how that routing entry would change the
source address.  According to the udp.log I run, the source address for
packets outbound from the bootp socket is still 0.0.0.0.

I thought there might be a problem with ipchains blocking these packets,
but I ran a few 'ipchains -C' tests, and everything I tried was
accepted.
