Thanks Nikos, I didn't want to assume setfib was the only method of 
modifying them (whether through directly using a utility or dropping 
into a shell under it). The man pages make no mention of how to actually 
change the other route tables, the handbook doesn't mention FIBs in any 
capacity, etc, so thought I would clarify here
