I see that the definition lines got messed up...
let's try monospace font. :-)

HOME
10.1.100.21          CTC1
10.1.55.21/16        NIC1

GATEWAY
; address      'mask'    1st-hop   link-name  MTU
10.1.100.20    HOST      =         CTC1       4096
DEFAULTNET             10.1.35.50          NIC1                1024

Thanks,
Shimon
