Hello,

I installed Fedora Core 1, and when I used /sbin/route as root I get:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.45.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
169.245.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
default 192.168.45.7 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0


I know 192.168.45.0 is the local area network, 127.0.0.0 is the
loopback interface, and 192.168.45.7 is the gateway. But how did the
169.245.0.0 address get in there? I didn't enter it. I tried to erase it
with route del 169.245.0.0 and route del -net 169.245.0.0 but it is not
being deleted. Does any one know how it got there, and how I can erase it?

Thanks,

Ian

Set NOZEROCONF=yes in /etc/sysconfig/network.

Hello,

Thanks Alexander! That worked. I still don't know how that entry got in
there. Next project is getting Samba working as I did in Redhat 6.2 .

Thanks,

Ian

This routing entry is there by default, as long as you do not deactivate
it using NOZEROCONF. See /sbin/ifup which sets it up.

any further details about what/why this entry exists would be most
appreciated.
