Hmmm... The aliases your setting up on fxp0 aren't on the same network as
your primary IP, I think that's why your getting the warning...

Presuming that 206.58.100.140 is also a class 'c' network, what happens if
you change the first alias (for 206.58.100.140) to have a propper netmask,
i.e. 255.255.255.0 (0xffffff00) rather than the 'fake / alias' IP
(255.2552.255.255) - and leave everything else 'as-is'.

That might help it out a bit... I'm kinda out on a limb here, but it
might work... ;-) - Worth trying anyway <G>, and let me know what
happens...

Regards,

Karl
