problem with syntax for /sbin/route?

_Max_

Hi,

I am having a problem with my network setup script. My net.eth0 runs the following (IPs replaced :wink:

):

Hi,
route add default gw IP dev device
that's all what you need.
... and take a look at /etc/conf.d/net

As far as I can see, /etc/conf.d/net just supplies the ip numbers and ifconfig arguments to the /etc/init.d/net.eth0 script ($IFACE and $iface_args), and then runs the commands with exactly the arguments that I describe above (tell me if I am wrong...).

Whether I run these via /etc/conf.d/net.eth0 or just type it in directly, I still get the same

SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable

I also tried
route add default gw 123.456.789.012 dev eth0
(without the netmask and metric), but it produces the same result. Hm....

It sounds to me like the gateway you have specified is not on your subnet. Without posting the actual IPs I can't tell. Double check your addressing and masks in /etc/conf.d/net
