Greetings! I just did fresh install of lenny, I have a DSL modem and run a static IP setup so I manually set up my route (DHCP was enabled by default) by killing the dhclient process and then setting up /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/network/interfaces and doing "/etc/init.d/networking restart" and it went fine, but suddenly after 30 minutes I suddenly lost internet connectivity and here is what I saw then:
