Also, if one (here 'X-1') is missing, all aliases from X onwards will be ignored. This could be viewed as a configuration issue (which it is, strictly speaking), but as some poeple have a lot of aliases, this kind of mechanism could be optimized. >How-To-Repeat: Put the following in rc.conf: ifconfig_fxp0="inet x.y.129.194 netmask 255.255.255.240" ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet x.y.129.195 netmask 255.255.255.255" #ifconfig_fxp0_alias1="inet x.y.129.196 netmask 255.255.255.255" ifconfig_fxp0_alias2="inet x.y.129.198 netmask 255.255.255.255" alias2 will not be configured. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
