[comp.unix.ultrix] Help with routed and bind

booth@lub001.lamar.edu (02/12/91)

I am trying to setup our new Ultrix DECstation 5100 on our TCP/IP network.
I have got all the local stuff working, however, I get "Network Unavailable"
when trying to get off my net to internet. We are using a Cisco router. I have 
/etc/routed running. I can define /etc/route to specific Internet net names 
and they work.

I am attempting to run a caching only BIND setup. I know next to nothing about 
Unix. I have selected local,bind in svc.conf and I used bindsetup. This is about 
the extent of the documentation on bind/hesoid. Can anyone help?

Add the following to /etc/rc.local right after routed:

/etc/route -f add default cisco-ip-address 1

and everything should work correctly.  Also comment out the routed
entry in /etc/rc.local.

Try this:

	near the end of your rc.local put

	/etc/route add default 127.122.7.253 1

Replace 127.122.7.253 with the address of your cisco.

We are running Ultrix 3.1 on a vax with a cisco as our window to the world
and it works fine.  Obviously you situation is somewhat different so I
make no guarantees.
