No one at psyche-list could solve this problem, so I throw it to you guys :) In short: I add some routes with either redhat-config-network, or route add, or both, (can't quite remember) Later, I no longer want those routes. So I use route del to get rid of them. Then I notice that every time I start eth0 (eg at boot and any other time), the routes come back. So I use redhat-config-network and delete them. I immediately re-run redhat-config-network and the routes are listed there again!! So this time I delete them again, go to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and delete the routes from route-eth0. I also find them in /etc/sysconfig/static-routes so I delete them from there. Now I restart eth0, and they're back again!! I have grep'd _every_single_file_ in /etc for the route ip, and found nothing. I've also looked at various daemons and programs that ppl have mentioned (RIP, OSPF, rdisc) to see if they're setting the routes, but nothing has turned up. I doubt this is the answer anyway, because I originally added the routes. This is really getting annoying, as every time I boot or restart eth0, these routes come back, which screws up some internet access. $ route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 1: 203.16.234.0 172.16.0.8 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 2: 172.16.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 3: 203.39.28.0 172.16.0.4 255.255.255.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 4: 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 5: 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 6: 0.0.0.0 172.16.0.4 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 (I added the numbers myself to make it easier) routes 1 & 3 are the problem ones. I know what all the others are there for, and I put them there. (PS I'm not a newbie :) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
