Or, you do it the way I did, with NM.The other "downside" is that the NM GUI (at least on KDE) doesn't allow for adding asecond IP address. Needs to be done manually.
Yeah, I tried having an alias file every which way imaginable, and just couldn't get it to work while having NetworkManager and DHCP run things.
NM, and DHCP, are very convenient, even if, for all practical purposes, the assigned IP addresses are static. That does make things easier. Looks like I'll just go with executing "ip addr add" manually, when I need to bring up a second IP address. It's not really the end of the world, but it would've been nicer if it were automated. I think that NM has a post-* script somewhere, that gets executed when it brings up an interface with a DHCP- acquired IP address, that I can stick that into…
