We have not historically allowed virtual domains on our 
site. We run exclusively FreeBSD and love it! One of our
customers gets a domain name and asks that we host it. For
purely political reasons - we probably oughta do it!

After some RTFM time, I did the following:

	added dns forward ('A') line
	added dns reverse ('PTR') line
	added alias line to the /etc/sysconfig file
	rebooted

When the system came back up the alias IP address seemed
to be the only one that was active (the original IP 
address for the box had disappeared)

What did I do wrong? (For the moment I removed the above mods!)

Thanks
David Clark
