Hi guys :-)
just an update ....
ifconfig shows:
inet 193.158.1.137 netmask 0xffffffff broadcast 193.158.1.137
netstat -rn shows:
193.158.1.137 193.158.1.137 UH 0 0 vx0 =>
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
193.158.1.137/32 link#1
so here's the bug ;) no alias is really made...
FIX:
I deleted the route added by ifconfig... and voila, everythings ok...
I can ping the address..
so.. seems to be a bug ;) -> already sent an PR
