Re: Where to add static routes?

[Sonny Kupka <sonny@nothnbut.net>]

I appreciate the info..

I already had the eth0 interface configured, what I now need to do is add 
static routes to the routing table..

Where do you add things like:

route add -net xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx gw xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask 255.255.255.240

I need this route added after the interfaces are up
