Actually I'm really confused by what you are seeing. I am guessing that the process ran some compiled code or a shell script and the default gateway was was cleared.
The gateway itself can be updated by the sysadmin and as you say:
If you are sure the script "did it"
and also look for invocations of other scripts. If there is an executable file called, try
Hi,
We are running AIX 5.2.
Our default gateway used to be IP Address A.
Our new default gateway is IP Address B.
A netstat revealed that our default route was IP address A.
We manually added default route with IP address B and removed the default route with IP address A.
However,... (3 Replies)

I have a netstat command set up with awk to show which ports my box is listening on. The -p switch shows the PID/program name, too, which ordinarily would be very handy. However, several entries show up as just "-" for the program name which makes it hard to identify what is keeping the port open.... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am new to solaris 10. What is the procedure the os takes if a default route is not configured? I am using a multihomed server with 4 interfaces. It looked strange to me this morning, because i had not defined a default route it defaulted to making one up, with the ip address of another... (9 Replies)
We have a mix of AIX, HP-UX, Linux (RHEL and SLES), and Solaris in our environment. Currently we have seperate patch management systems for each platform (NIM, SD, Spacewalk, etc), but have started looking for a centralized patch management solution that would work for most, if not all, of our...

Hiya,
I got the default gateway set in /etc/defaultrouter file, however "netstat -nr" doesn't show anything like "default" in the routing table. As far as I know "netstat" on Solaris 10 u7 should show something like :

route.conf
ROUTE.CONF(5) BSD File Formats Manual ROUTE.CONF(5)NAME
route.conf -- static routes config file
DESCRIPTION
The route.conf file is read by the staticroute rc.d script during system start-up and shutdown, and is intended for adding and removing
static routes.
FILE FORMAT
Lines starting with a hash ('#') are comments and ignored. Lines starting with a plus sign ('+') are run during start-up, while lines start-
ing with a minus sign ('-') are run during system shutdown. If a line starts with a '!', the rest of the line will get evaluated as a shell
script fragment. All other lines are passed to route(8). During start-up, they are passed behind a ``route add -'' command and during shut-
down behind a ``route delete -'' command.
FILES
/etc/route.conf The route.conf file resides in /etc.
/etc/rc.d/staticroute
rc.d(8) script that parses route.conf.
EXAMPLES
In this example, the interface for the desired routing changes is set, the IP address on that interface is determined, and a route is added
during startup, or deleted during system shutdown.
# Set interface and determine current IP address for added route.
!ifname=bnx0
!ipaddr=$(/sbin/ifconfig ${ifname} | awk '$1 == "inet" {print $2}')
net 10.10.1 -interface ${ipaddr}
In this example, IP forwarding is turned on during start-up, and a static route added for 192.168.2.0. During system shutdown, the route is
removed and IP forwarding turned off.
# Turn on/off IP forwarding.
+sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
-sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=0
net 192.168.2.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.150.2
