[ILUG] static routing

[Ger Gorman]

ok..I've rtfm'ed and I still can't find an answer. Just for the hell of it
I included an entry to the routing table (using route add ...) to explicity
state that packets sent to gonzo.ie are routed through lo. (gonzo.ie being
the name of the local host). On a reboot I find that when I do a netstat -rn
the device for gonzo.ie is set to eth0!!! I've tested this a few times.

Does anyone know what changes the table and why? A simple yes answer will not do!

cheers
