/etc/tcp + Default gateway

[RoryJMcKenna]

Is it possible to add my default gateway on an Open Server5 box to the /etc/tcp file .... If so would anyone mind showing me the correct syntax (As I will be editing the file remotely ... 4 Hour drive away!)

#
# Interface configuration -- edit as appropriate.
#
ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1 perf 57344 57344 1
ifconfig -p net1 192.168.2.251 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast
192.168.2.255 perf 24576 24576 1
# ifconfig en0 `uname -n` $NETMASK $BROADCAST
/etc/route add 224.0.0.0 192.168.2.251 0 > /dev/null 2>&1
fi

if [ "$do_basic" = 1 ]; then



Any help is greatly appreciated!

No don't add it to /etc/tcp as this file gets rebuilt.
Add a file in /etc/rc2.d called S99myroutes and in it have the line:

route add default {gatewayip}
