Using route add default merit-gw.msu.edu worked.  Thanks.  After reading the
manual a little closer, and looking at other UNIX machines here it appears that
the router daemon should handle the router tables even if one is not a router.
I suspect that I do not have the broadcast and subnet mask set correctly.  All
that should happen when I run routed is that it will only find one interface and
not supply routing information.  At least that is all that was necessary to get
the other machines to build their router tables.

What is gateway in the inet.config file used for?
