</div>The only thing I can think of is that you are trying to bind static routes<br>
to interface aliases, and not the actual interface device. Try and change<br>
your "eth1:0" to "eth1" and see if that works. Normally what I tend to do<br>
is to call my own script with static routes from rc.local right at the end<br>
of the boot cycle. Not a really neat solution, but it's a cross-distro<br>
technique.<br><font color="#888888"><br></font></blockquote></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>Hi Jan,<div><br></div><div>Thanks but the route works perfectly if I enter it at the CLI. It just wont load on startup from the interfaces file for some reason. Considered using a script to add them but it's a bit messy and I need this to be able to be obvious how things are set up when other people are doing any admin on the system.</div>
