Thanks. I _have_ been down this path but never with a good map or
directions. :-)

Redhat/Fedora/CentOS all have a ifup-/ifdown-routes scripts. Problem is
they are poorly documented. Looking at the one on my CentOS 5 system
there are labels; ADDRESS, GATEWAY, NETMASK; and code blocks for route,
rule, etc. but no documentation.

This all looks familiar (he types with eyes downcast) from a list thread
in September 2006.

I'm going hunting for the Redhat (CentOS) pages on this and try again.

Thanks for the hint.
