Hi, I don't know where I should be posting this, but I am using proxmox (using openvz) for centos (proxmox template) and I can't get it to set the route in my openvz VM. In /etc/sysconfig/network I have
networking="yes"
gateway="92.25.11.254"
hostname="cpanel"

I have rebooted the VM and it still doesn't work, route -n shows:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0

You can configure the network as usual if you use a bridge. The default method of networking with the containers is not bridging (it's venet). There's a howto for setting up the bridge and openvz configuration.

If you're using venet (the default) you just configure the IP in the conf file and the template scripts make the necessary configuration in the container. That file /etc/sysconfig/network usually has something like this:
NETWORKING="yes"
GATEWAY="192.0.2.1"

Yes, I did edit that file and I have said my file is set to the correct gateway but centos/openvz is not actually using that value and it's setting gateway to 0.0.0.0 and when I manually try to set a route with "route add default gw 92.25.11.254" I get SIOCADDRT: No such process
