[Users] Re: dual ethernet woes

[Romeo Theriault]

Under Red Hat these routes would be configured for the network interfaces by
editing the  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth* interface. Here is an
example of one such file:

GATEWAY0=192.168.1.254
NETMASK0=255.255.255.0
ADDRESS0=192.168.55.0

GATEWAY1=10.164.234.112
NETMASK1= 255.255.255.240
ADDRESS1=10.164.234.132

Taken from http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/configuring-static-routes-in-debian-or-red-hat-linux-systems.html

Hope that helps.
