Bad routes appearing in the routing table

        I am having network problems with my Alpha 4100 that runs Digital
Unix 4.0E with just 1 network card. Recently some of my users cannot
connect to the Alpha. They cannot ping or traceroute to it. I discovered
by doing a 'netstat -r' that there are incorrect route entries that point to
the Internet firewall. I removed them using 'route delete -net' and that
fixed it but they seem to come back. The only static route I have in
/etc/routes is one to the default gateway.

Is there any process that creates routing entries? How do these routes get
created? Is it dynamic?

Thank you,
