If he doesn't know about the file, it was probably created by
filling out the form in 'system-config-network' and it should
be possible to get rid of it the same way.   Normally you
don't need per-interface routes unless there are other
routers that you can only reach through certain interfaces.
If you only have one router, setting the default route
takes care of it.
