The Ubuntu box cannot ping the external NIC of the SUSE box.  I added the 
default gateway:
sudo route add default gw ipadress

Afterwards, I am able to ping Google.  However, on restarting the network 
services or rebooting the machine (both methods), the default route gets 
lost.  I have to re-add it.  What is the best way to make this more 
permanent?
