Hello all, Now that I require routes to be added to make my network work, I'm looking into how to make them automatically add themselves when the system boots.
I tried putting a simple script in if-up.d, but it ran too soon. It would not wait for the br0 interface to come up (it waits for 30 seconds) and most of the route add commands fail. I tried adding up ip route add lines to /etc/network/interfaces, but that did the same thing. Kinda successfully, I've added a script to /etc/init.d, called routes. I added an RCDLINKS line from an email in a mailing list archive that is supposed to do this all last (I think). And it seems to do that. But I don't know why and I can't find any documentation on this whole rc file structure in /etc. Well, I've found documentation but it doesn't tie up with the file structures so maybe it was for a different UNIX type OS. So, no idea why it works or if that's how to do what I've done. Is there a better way to do this and can anybody point me towards some decent documentation? Thanks, James.
