Cool, I thought I had tried that as well without success, but I'll take your word and experience over mine any day. :) Thanks for the clarification and actually responding to a random email. later, jason -----Original Message----- From: Jerry McAllister [mailto:jerrymc@clunix.cl.msu.edu]=20 Sent: Monday, February 28, 2005 5:54 PM To: Jason D.

It should be: ifconfig_fxp0_alias0=3D"10.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.255" With neither 'inet' or 'alias' within the quotes for the alias definition. At least that is the way it works for us on about 75 servers. ////jerry > =20 >=20 > later, >=20 > jason >=20 > -=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D- >=20 > jason d. montgomery >=20 > ATGi >=20 > -=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D-=3D- >=20
