Hi guys. I know next to nithing about how redhat has ip networking setup and I have a question. I have a box which has a 192.168.1.2 ip address and I need to alias 192.168.2.2 as well on it. In looking at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts I see a file called ifcfg-eth0 which has the information for the first IP 192.168.1.2. I know I can easily add the 2nd Ip alias to rc.local but I want to do this and follow the rh standard ofr configuring the netowrk. So my question is do I add the ip alias to a new file called ifcfg-eth0:1 or do I add it to the existing ifcfg-eth0 devining eth0:1 in the file itself? I'm confused on this point because in the file ifcfg-eth0 it specifies a device line which says DEVICE=eth0 and under it has the necessary IP network and subnet lines. So I'm not sure if under all that I specify a DEVICE=eth0:1. Any help? --- For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals..
