Re: [MiNT] Samba client

I just noticed something:

bash-2.05a# route
Destination         Gateway             Flags   Ref      Use Metric Iface
default             192.168.0.1         UGD       1     1261      0 rtk0
192.168.0.201       *                   UH        1      866      0 lo0
127.0.0.0           *                   U         1        0      0 lo0
127.0.0.1           *                   UH        1        8      0 lo0

Should the Iface for 192.168.0.201 be rtk0 or lo0  ?
