	Luc,

	Changing the routing configuration files is not going to help
	you remove an IP :)

	You can use the following command to take an inteface down
	/sbin/ifconfig <device name>
	ex: /sbin/ifconfig eth0:135

	The configuration file for that interface is kept at
	/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX[:YY]
	and can also be controlled with the ifup and ifdown
	commands.

	If you wish to remove the interface, remove the related
	ifcfg-eth file for that interface AFTER taking the interface
	down.
