On an OS/2 box, what do the flags UGDP mean in the output of netstat -r. Google seems to point to them meaning Up, Gateway (i.e. an indirect root), and Dynamic (learned from a redirect), but that leaves me mystified as to the meaning of P. The only suggestion I've had is permanent but that doesn't make any sense with dynamic. Any ideas?

os/2? wow. I didn't know anyone still ran it :) – warren Nov 2 '09 at 10:27
I thought that too up until recently :-( – Cian Nov 2 '09 at 14:47
There should really be a badge for someone who sets a new tag that hasn't been used before, especially if it's for something antique. "Dusty", perhaps? – mfinni May 10 '10 at 1:50

I believe the 'P' is for persistent

I assumed that as well, but that doesn't make any sense if 'D' is dynamic, does it? – Cian Nov 3 '09 at 11:47
