The one I found best was to create the "route-eth0" file in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts directory, and include your static routing information in there, eg: 203.xxx.xxx.0/24 via 203.xxx.xxx.1 Then reboot (or stop and start the network). There are other ways too, which is why you should look at the list archives, but this was the better way I think. Michael. Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
