Yeah, that didn't work.... Invalid ifconfig syntax.
But I did locate where in the rc.network script that default routes are
taken care of:
# Set up any static routes. This should be done before router discovery.
#
if [ -n "${static_routes}" ]; then
for i in ${static_routes}; do
eval route_args=\$route_${i}
route add ${route_args}
done
fi
The problem is that by this time in the script, I already have a default
route. I've fixed the problem by adding
route change default xx.xx.xx.x
to my rc.local. But isn't this defeating the purpose of the defaultroute
variable?
