I have a LAN attached to a PPP link to the Internet via a gateway (masquerading) machine. When I would do 'route add -net 127.0.0.0' when the gateway was not connected, it would return an error message. I messed around a bit with it, and found that it was easiest to simply specify the interface in the route command, say route add -net 127.0.0.0 lo and so forth. No more problems with *that*... now just the masquerading and FTP... eck.
