Route in ODM databse

[aixmurderer]

How do I get rid of a route in the ODM db? "route delete" does it for me until the next reboot, then it's back again.

The wonderful thing is that it's a ppp route which was never added by anyone, normally the host connects via tc/pip, but the host also acts as a RAS server, which of course means a ppp dialup connection to the user. This ppp route gets in the way of a normal tcpip host to host connection.

The 'route' command is usually temporary only and won't be effective until the next boot. Try using SMIT to remove the 'route'.

If this route gets reset after a reboot, I would guess that there is an rc file (ie rc.net, rc.tcpip, rc.bsdnet) that is setting it on boot. You could
cd /etc/
grep route rc*

Another possibility is that the there is a line in the /etc/inittab that is starting a program that is setting this route. Look for the startup script for your RAS server, and see if it is setting the route.
