static routes in network configuration files

Hello,
I would like to establish a static route for my "Ubuntu 10.10" by adding it manually, rather than through the GUI (gnome-nettool). A network search confirmed that the right place would be /etc/network/interfaces, but there is no stanza in that file for the interface in question, eth0.
Where does Ubuntu store the static routes?
I made a complete copy of /etc and added the route through the GUI, and then compared the new /etc against the old /etc. There were no changes!
Note that the first mention of eth0 in /var/log/syslog is:
...avahi-daemon[1202]: Joining mDNS multicast group on interface eth0.IPv4 with address w.x.y.z.
avahi-daemon[1202]: New relevant interface eth0.IPv4 for mDNS.
avahi-daemon[1202]: Registering new address record for w.x.y.z on eth0.IPv4.
Does avahi store stuff elsewhere than in /etc? If so, why?
Any thoughts appreciated.
