changing default gatewate for eth1

[datadan]

What's the command for changing my default gateway from ip 123 to 345 on eth1?

(I'm changing ISPs)

Thanks,

type netconfig as root/su to root

Is there a way of doing this without using netconfig? X is not installed. Many of the "helpers" like linuxconf cause seg faults and core dumps. This makes me wary.

Thanks

man route

ie:

route del default gw eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
route add default gw eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

If your changing ISP's don't forget
/etc/resolv.conf for your new DNS servers.

Good Luck,

Just use LinuxConf and go to the networking section and then choose "gateways" You should be able to set it there.

You probably need to do it as root.
