I am running FC3 on an older mail server that has always had a weird
routing/latency issue. It is an IMAP server sitting our DMZ and it
takes about 30-45 seconds for mail to exit the Outbox or for IMAP
connections to be made. I ran a "route -n" on this box today to see
what the table looked like and here's what it has:<br>
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface<br>
10.XX.70.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1<br>
10.XX.70.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1<br>
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0
eth1<br>
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
0 lo<br>
0.0.0.0 10.XX.70.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0
0 eth1<br>
<br>
My question is on the second line - why would this be in there twice?
I am also considering putting eth0 (not currently in use) active on the
inside interface as well. When I run the "route del" command on the
second line it errors out with:<br>
<b><i><font color="#3333ff"># route del -net 10.XX.70.0 netmask
255.255.255.0 gw 10.XX.70.1 eth1 <enter></font><br>
<font color="#3333ff">SIOCDELRT: No such process</font></i></b><br>
<br>
Can anyone help me understand what I am doing wrong on the route del
command and also if it looks like I am moving in the right direction to
remove the latency issue?<br>
thanks,<br>
Doug<br>
