Hey guys,

I needed to add a route to my routing table and I got it to work but on reboot it gets removed. Anyone know what file I can add this route to so it stays on the machine after a reboot?

Create a startup script that contains your command in /etc/init.d then create a symbolic link to the file in /etc/rc2.d.

It's best to create a separate file so if you apply a patch that modifies an existing script, you don't lose your custom mod.

Put the command in /etc/rc.local file.

This is not a good solution, try to find appropriate config file, e.g. http://www.cyberciti.biz/nixcraft/vi...-debian-or.php

As far as I know, such files do not exist on, for instance, Solaris systems. So, in these cases, you have to write your own rc scripts as said above.

Yea, I'm a Solaris admin so I tend to immediately think in my terms when answering questions. Of course there are alternate methods to make the necessary changes

Yea, I'm using Solaris 9... I'll have to check out the rc file.. thanks guys.
