Hi,

I was wondering what was the syntax of static_routes in the rc.conf
file, so I looked it up in "The Complete FreeBSD". According to it the
static_routes should look like this:

static_routes="route_A route_B"
route_A="-net xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy"
route_B="-net xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy"

Is the syntax the same for freebsd 2.2.2 'cause I keep on getting a:

'add net : Invalid argument' message at bootup.

thanks,

nick
