Persistent Routes

[Joe]

I know that in Windows XP you can make persistent routes
by adding the -p switch, but Im trying to put in
persistent routes on some windows 98
machines, but from what i read there is no way. so if
that is true i was looking into creating a bat file that
would put them in upon startup. I was wondering if
anyone could lead me or help me in creating this bat
file. i know the correct syntax of the commands i need
to input,
(route add XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX mask XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX gateway)
i put all 11 in a bat file, but when i run it, it just
goes in a loop running the first route. im not a bat
file writer, so is there a switch i need to put at the
end of each route and how would i begin and end the bat
file?? Or is it possible to add persistent routes? any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
