as there is no default file static-routes, I am not so happy by
creating one, even more so as I found this piece of documentation:
"With the introduction of Redhat version 8 and continued into version 9, the
/etc/sysconfig/static-routes file no longer seems to function correctly."
Two different beasts, from what I can tell. The ifup-routes appears to
be part of activating an interface, where the static routes are for
all interfaces. But I am looking at a slightly different level so
things may have changed. Redhat 9 is a bit old hat (no 00D intended).
My /etc/init.d/network has a snippet that says:
# Add non interface-specific static-routes.
if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/static-routes ]; then
grep "^any" /etc/sysconfig/static-routes | while read
ignore args ; do
/sbin/route add -$args
done
