I've added a persistent route to our Windows Server 2003 box using "route -p add". After a reboot the "route print" gave this:

Persistent Routes:

10.88.0.0 255.255.255.0 10.88.0.2 1
The route I added is listed as a persistent route, but not an active one. Why might this be the case?
The route in question is for an OpenVPN connection, would that have anything to do with it?
