Subject: [LARTC] invalid table ID

<PRE>Greetings

The ip route how-to describes the following for setting up source routing

#echo 501 uras.out &gt;&gt; /etc/iproute2/rt_table
#ip rule add from 10.0.0.0/24 table uras.out

The first line complains of a missing directory, which is simple fixed
(create dir iproute2 in etc)
The second line then reports

Error: argument &quot;uras.out&quot; is wrong: invalid table ID

The op sys is RH 7. I had exactly the same problem with 6.2 and was hoping 7
would solve, but did not. Any ideas?

Regards
Warren

ps
The specs on iproute2 look great. Thanks to all those who contributed. I
just wish I could get it working.
