It shouldn't be hard to find in 4.0 either

It is set using the console configure option. If you are using your server in server only configuration, it is the first configuration screen that you see. If you are using in server/gateway configuration, with two netcards with a static IP for the external network link, the gateway setting comes up after setting the IP address and netmask of the external link.

Hopefully you will be connected soon

Hmmm, im use a Server/gateway option, but the gateway settings never come up..
Maybe my Planet Netcard (eth1) is bad..
It's to late to buy a new one now, the time over here is now 01.45 Night..)

Very surprising. You're quite sure that it isn't there after setting netmask on the external link?

In any case, bypassing the GUI and setting it is not hard:

/sbin/e-smith/config set GatewayIP x.x.x.x
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event console-save

I doubt that is the problem.
