how to configure gateway on centos(used google but no answers)

Question

here are some configuration files from the virtualbox on centos5.5, i've restart the network,but also can't connect to the internet, no gateway records information listed using route command, however,while i typing "route add default gw 192.168.0.1" and it works well.how shoud i configurate the gateway ip? thanks in advance.

/etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

/etc/sysconfig/network

GATEWAY=192.169.0.1
NETWORKING=yes
HOSTNAME=localhost

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

DEVICE="eth0"  
HWADDR="00:24:1D:8A:3D:F7" 
ONBOOT="yes"  
BOOTPROTO="static"  
BROADCAST="192.168.0.255"
NETWORY="192.168.0.1" 
IPADDR="192.168.0.109" 
NETMASK="255.255.0.0"

GATEWAY=192.169.0.1 - is this a typo in your question only, or is it in your /etc/sysconfig/network file too? — juanrpozo, Oct 20 '12 at 16:37
yes, this is a typo, actually,the GATEWAY is 192.168.0.1, but the network is not working. — yuhai.hacker, Oct 21 '12 at 03:38

CentOS 5 should have file route-eth0 (in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts ) put this string into it: default X.X.X.X dev interface make sure you change X.X.X.X and interface to your.

Btw, take a look to http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.1/Deployment_Guide/s1-networkscripts-static-routes.html
