Hi! I am having trouble configuring my server for virtual ips. Its 'main' ip is 152.160.182.16 (ifconfig) I do the following ifconfig ed0 inet 152.160.5.1 alias route add -host 152.160.5.1 localhost The route command fails with 'file exists' error, and I cant ping the server on 152.160.5.1, even from a local machine (same LAN). Now, I have no problem aliasing to ips on same subnet, ie., aliasing to 152.160.182.224, for example. So I suspect this is a problem with netmask on ifconfig, but I cant figure out what it should be. Thanks, --Stan
