Package: iproute Version: 20061002-4 Severity: wishlist At times, such as before configuring a VPN tunnel, I want to add an explicit route to the peer. It would be nice if iproute could be told to do this in one line. Thus, instead of first parsing the routing table and adding a new route, it should just add the new route according to the routing table:
While doing this currently: ip r a $(ip r g 130.60.75.72 | head -1) yields the result I want, it would be nice to be able to say ip r a 130.60.75.72 via route Basically, this would cause iproute to instantiate a separate routing table entry with a longer netmask, using the default gateway if no other rule exists. It's a wishlist... :) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-amd64 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages iproute depends on: ii libatm1 2.4.1-17 shared library for ATM (Asynchrono ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libdb4.3 4.3.29-8 Berkeley v4.3 Database Libraries [ Versions of packages iproute recommends: pn iproute-doc <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
