consider my network:

ADSL --- modem --- pc/gateway --- LAN
||
modem
||
pc/gateway (212.34.xxx.xxx)
||
LAN 10.0.1.x

the uml system are in the 10.0.1.x too, so I meed the same conf of the pc
(in the LAN) where they run on. In this case I need the same gateway, but
it seems that rootstrap doesn't like it, because in another subnet.
It seems strange, because with all the images network works.

Cheers
