Re: How to change a gateway?

[Emerson Dorow <emerson.dorow@senior.com.br>]

Hi Bill,

        Look my /etc/network/interfaces:

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# This is a list of hotpluggable network interfaces.
# They will be activated automatically by the hotplug subsystem.
mapping hotplug
        script grep
        map eth0

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 10.0.10.10
        netmask 255.255.0.0
        broadcast 10.0.255.255
        network 10.0.0.0
        gateway 10.0.10.6

Put the gateway option in yours interfaces configuration script, now your route will survive a reboot. I wish i could help you.

Bye.
