Thanks for the info. Not quite exactly what I was looking for. As far as I can 
see, that changes the routes, but does not use the values 
from  /etc/sysconfig/network/routes. That naturally solves the problem of 
adding a route without restarting the network (just as using the route 
command would). However, it doesn't check the validity/correctness of the 
routes file. I guess I should have been a little more specific in what I was 
looking for.

Regards,

Jim Mohr
