Hi all,

I did a cvsup and a make buildworld, made a new kernel over the weekend on
4.5-S. Now ifconfig won't bring up aliases for multiple network interfaces.

Nothing else on the system has changed!

Does anyone know what is going on? This is suppose to be stable, right??

error message:

ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists

Thanks

Greg
