netcfg didn't do the trick. I removed the asliases, but it downed the whole interface. When I put it up again with ifconfig eth1 up, all aliases were back again :( I did remove the aliased ifcfg.... files and tried 'ifconfig eth1 down /up', tried 'ifdown/ifup' and even tried '/etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart'. All in vain. a reboot probably would do the trick, but I can't imagine that would be necessary. Besides, it's a busy little machine. I am using net-tools-1.53-1, which looks quite fresh to me. Anyone got hints left?
