from memory you dont evven need the up and down parts unless youwish to
specify extra routes
there is a line you dont have in there which is
gateway 192.168.0.6
if you have a look ath the way /etc/init.d/network(ing) (not sure im in
windoze at the mo) and see the way it works you will find with the current
conf its is doing the same stuff twice for some parts : )
you may beable to clean up your routing a bit.
the up and down commands are normaly used if youwant to do stuff like
ipchains and hav eit initialised at the same time : )
