that is the hard part to make it not mess with normal if-up/down scripts
and routes they add...
I have alot of manual routes and rules which are not easy handled
especialy when I add another boxes which also happen to have different routes.....
If I can figure out the format of the default-ip-up/down routes I can
skip them with a regex..
will have to look..


|I think it doesn't sound elegant, routing system strictly depends on 
|availability interfaces, so setting up routes should be done in if-up 
|and if-down script, for example, if you unplug a NIC before booting the 
|computer, do you want the route for that NIC to be set up? And sometimes 
|you may need to bring down a NIC - then the kernel will delete your 
|routes automatically, if you have a nice if-up script, the routes will 
|be recovered when you bring it up. An init.d script can't do it.
|If you still want a init.d script, go ahead and write your own script, 
|it's rather easy to do save states and restore on boot, but I guess you 
|may want things to done right instead of a messy solution.

I wrote something like that:
http://washington.kelkoo.net/iprvss/

I'm using it, to manage the policy routing setup of my company (around
25 firewalls / routers). I've been using it since several years with
different scenarios, and so far without issues. 

Let me know if you have problem with it. There is no init script at that
time, unfortunately, but it should be quite easy to make one, or use
rc.local to call it.
