I am trying to add a default route to my Solaris system but everytime I
reboot it forgets this new addition and reverts back to the old table. I
have tried adding an entry into the inittab file but this does not help.
My syntax might be wrong!
How can I make Solaris remember a static default route for good? I come
from AIX world and am having problems figuring this one out!! Thanks in
advance for any info.

Try putting the ip address of the default route into a file called
/etc/defaultrouter.

Create a file /etc/defaultrouter with a single entry of the default route's IP
address. This will establish that address as your default entry on reboot.

Is there an equivalent to /etc/defaultrouter for SCO UNIX?  I've tried
/etc/defaultrouter on my SCO, but it's ignored.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jeff

I haven't touched SCO in a few years but I remember that back then you had
to actually modify the startup script.
