You do this with ifconfig eth0:0 ipaddress netmask 255.x.x.x broadcast x.x.x.255 up then do ifconfig You should see three devices lo eth0 and eth0:0 you can then add more continuing in the same thread i.e eth0:1 eth0:2 etc But you must have ip alias configured in the kernel but most likely it will be there.

I am running Slackware 7.0. I have tried it with ifconfig eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx broadcast xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx, replacing the x's with their appropriate values, but have had no luck, it will add the ip address, overriding the one I had before, whereas I would like to stick both on the same device (eth0) > > Any help would be greatly appreciated! > > Ken Jansons > kenj@snowcap.net > > Noah ksemat@eahd.or.ug - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu
