[gentoo-dev] BUG 540 (Feature Request) on supporting routes on different devices

[Peter Foley]

Hello,

Just a quick question.  I havent done much shell scripting but I was curious
if this line

(Taken from CVS :  /gentoo-src/rc-scripts/init.d/net.et0)
**********
  if [ -n "$gateway" ] && [ "${gateway%/*}" = "$IFACE" ]
**********

Checks to see if the gateway variable has two items in it like

(Taken from CVS :  /gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/net)
**********
 #gateway="eth0/192.168.0.1"
**********

and if it does not have two items does it default to the current device in
the net file.

Ie. if it is net.eth0 then it would default to "dev eth0" and if it was in
the net.eth1 file then it would default to "dev eth1"

Peter.
