ls -lt seems to be confused about what's latest!

-----------------------------------------------------------------
2nd bug is that network.local does not work correctly on boot
I get message:/usr/etc/route add default 128.114.133.251 1: file exists
(something pretty close to that anyhow), and remote cites are not known.
I can manually say "network.local" which will properly add the route.
network.local contains:
if test $1 = stop ; then
        exit;
fi
/usr/etc/route add default 128.114.133.251 1
-------------------------------------------------------------------
the proper links are put in rc0.d and rc2.d as outlined
in /etc/init.d/network

Can anyone explain why this fails?

TIA, MM Cohen
