Am trying to do some routing on a remote Linux server, every time something goes wrong i lose connection and i have to call the IT guy there and ask him to restart the network interfaces or sometimes reboot the server to get rid of the bad routes i inserted.
I tried to make cron restart networking every 7 minutes to reset the route table by running /etc/init.d/networking restart but its not restarting. i tried making cron run a bash file that has that command in it and still the same.
Is there anyway to reset the route table via cron ?
