	Kerem,

	Perhaps you could just set the linux box's gateway to be a
machine/router that does keep up to date with network changes?  This begs
the question, why doesn't the linux box's current gateway know about these
changes?

	Isn't this typical?  Ask one question and get three in return ;)

	Mike
