To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello all. I am trying to setup one of my freebsd boxes to support two ip aliases on an ed0 interface. The first set of ifconfig commands worked great. "ifconfig ed0 inet 208.128.192.241 netmask 255.255.255.255 alias" Now, I want to setup another ip alias: "ifconfig ed0 inet 208.128.192.242 netmask 255.255.255.255 alias" This command does not work, and I get a file exists error. What am I doing incorrectly? I was under the impression I could have multiple ips on one machine. Thanks. Jeremy
