This config was without problems in 8-STABLE. >Description: Please see this thread on the FreeBSD Forums: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=27108 >How-To-Repeat: Set ifconfig_nic0 and ifconfig_nic0_alias0 entries in rc.conf, and reboot. The primary IP address comes up, the alias is absent, and no activity can be found in dmesg -a. >Fix: Using the ipv4_addrs_nic0 type syntax does not have this problem. Creating the alias from the command line is also not a problem. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
