Hopefully my fellows don't get bothered if I answer that one: just add the option '-p' to the route command like c:\>route -p add 20.30.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 155.123.111.9 Greg, Is this list really only for FreeBSD users? What about the "FreeBSD *and* MS" users? ;-) Regards, Sephan. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
