I've decided to do a board completely surface mount in Eagle. The autorouter is pretty useless so I hand routed it. The problem comes when I run a DRC. Eagle reports every connection as a Stop Mask error. Does anyone know a way around this? See board below.

the vss and vdd connection can be removed and the polygons , once named , would take care pummy. **broken link removed**
