As far as I know, but please detail what they should be. I've made more
than my share of dumb mistakes in my lifetime.
Here's an example of adding a new one. No aliasas will set now, I've
tried to do them in rc.conf.
# ifconfig
rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet XXX.XXX.44.91 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast XXX.XXX.44.95

ether 00:50:70:d1:17:02

# ifconfig rl0 alias XXX.XXX.44.92 netmask 255.255.255.248
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists
IP's altered to protect innocent firewalls.

Hmmm, are you sure you're using the correct ifconfig params?
# ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 alias
# ifconfig lo0
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
inet 127.0.0.2 netmask 0xffffffff
# ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.255 -alias
# ifconfig lo0
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
