Leap15 - I noticed today that yast prefers writing route configs to 'ifroute-ethx' instead of just 'routes'. I prefer using 'routes' - any reason I shouldn't ? If you want it to *not* work, then using 'ifroute-ethx' would be

Oh. :-)

Well, I've moved my route config to /etc/sysconfig/network/routes and that works, as it always have. I'll stick to that.

Glad you took my sardonic phrasing with humor.  It was intended to point out that, for some reason, using the same code in each of those files, ifroute-[iface] doesn't work and hasn't for a long time... that from my experience.  -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I went and looked it up - the syntax should be exactly the same, from "man routes": "Both files use the same syntax".

True.

This is what I have in routes:

default 185.85.248.1 - eth1 default fe80::1 - eth1

Copied straight from ifroute-eth1.

I'm pretty sure you need to specify netmasks in both of those lines... either in CIDR notation in the first field or (old school) in place of your dashes. Also, I looked harder at those configs and the docs, rejiggered things, and got both configs working, i.e., both ifroute-eth0 and routes files. Is "route" (or whatever "ip" command you use) now showing you that you have what you need? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

That's the gateway, the default route: everything "else" goes to that IP, so no mask needed, I understand.

mine does not even specify the device, default 192.168.1.254 - - -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Those addresses are gateways though, not networks.
