How to add a static/permanent route?

How do I add a route to Windows 2000 that will persist across reboots?

It is a single host route.  I want to route 192.168.10.1 (a host) to 192.168.40.253 (my router)

THanks

Sorry Carlo - there were no replies to his question when I started typing - I guess I took too long! Not trying to steal your points!

Thanks guys, that answers it.

You were both correct.  I have a PC that has two network cards.  One is connected to the public network, and one is connected to 192.168.40.0 /24 for file system backups.  There is a router on the 192.168.40.0 network (192.168.40.253).  In order to get to our new backup server (192.168.10.1) I need to go to that router.  So the statement

route -p add 192.168.10.1 mask 255.255.255.255 192.168.40.253

is what I was looking for.  Thanks again,
Shane
