Hi<div>The man page says that static routes per interface should be in the format:</div><div>IP/mask:gateway and space separated for multiple entries.</div><div><br></div><div>So I have added:</div><div>{ip&#39;s are fictional}</div>
<div><a href="http://20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253">20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253</a> <a href="http://20.17.17.1/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253">20.17.17.1/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253</a> <a href="http://10.17.4.20/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253">10.17.4.20/255.255.255.255:20.17.96.253</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>but I get:</div><div><a href="http://20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255">20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255</a> via 20.17.96.253</div><div><a href="http://20.17.17.1/255.255.255.255">20.17.17.1/255.255.255.255</a> via 20.17.96.253</div>
<div><a href="http://20.17.4.20/255.255.255.255">20.17.4.20/255.255.255.255</a> via 20.17.96.253</div><div><br></div><div>Setting up of the routes fail when networking starts up with the error:</div><div>an inet prefix is expected rather than <a href="http://20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255">20.17.1.20/255.255.255.255</a> via 20.17.96.253</div>
<div><br></div><div>So firstly, have I read the man page wrong for cobbler? What should the values be? and secondly the /usr/share/doc/initscripts-8.45.30/sysconfig.txt documetation recommends</div><div><br></div><div><div>
    ADDRESSn=&lt;network&gt;</div><div>    NETMASKn=&lt;network/prefix mask&gt;</div><div>    GATEWAYn=&lt;next-hop router/gateway IP address&gt; </div><div>  </div><div>  The &quot;n&quot; can be any integer number, but is expected to be monotonically</div>
<div>  increasing and counting starts from 0. For example:</div><div><br></div><div>    ADDRESS0=192.168.2.0</div><div>    NETMASK0=255.255.255.0</div><div>    GATEWAY0=192.168.1.1</div></div><div><br></div><div>Admittedly I am using an older version of cobbler:</div>
<div>cobbler-2.0.11-2.el5</div><div>cobbler-web-2.0.11-2.el5</div><div><br></div><div>and have not had the opportunity to test in a new environment yet with a new cobbler instance. So is this fixed in newer versions or is the problem I am seeing specific only to Red Hat/CentOS?</div>
