Hi Les, > I do have another gateway at 10.0.254.1, it is a Linksys router that all > > the provate stuff plugs into, and that Linksys plugs directly into our > > modem. > > You can only have one 'default' gateway. Keep the one pointed to the > internet router. Make a file named > /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth1 to hold the route(s) handled > by the other interface. Something like: > 10.0.0.0/8 via 10.0.254.1 > should work if you want the whole private class A space to go that way. > The ifup/ifdown scripts will add/remove the routes matching the interfaces. > So this is a static route. I trued what you suggested and the eth1 interface stalls to come up. It just wont. All ssh sessions get disconnected and everything stops working I did: [root@meowbox network-scripts]# cat route-eth1 10.0.0.0/8 via 10.0.254.1 I found: http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/s1-networkscripts-static-routes.html So I changed it to: [root@meowbox network-scripts]# cat route-eth1 10.0.0.0/8 via 10.0.254.1 dev eth1 and commented out the GATEWAY= line in ifcfg-eht1 and the interface comes up. Testing ssh and the websites, they seem to be fine. Thank you for this lesson.
