I have a Linux Mandrake and hp-ux server. After adding or deleting routes in the routing table, I observed that the routing table is restored to its original contents each time server is rebooted. I have to add and delete again the routes. How to save routing table so i don't have to do the same thing over again.

copy the file from etc to your home directory, change ownership from root to non priveledged user ( you ) then edit that file to add the routes.
save it into your home directory.
as root copy it back to etc.
reboot system
all routes should be loaded.
