That does it!!!  Told you I was good for a stupid mistake or two.

Haven't tested it because I can't reboot the box, but I'd assume that's
why the rc.conf statements didn't work as well (the netmask). I don't
think the position of alias had anything to do with it, but just the
netmask.

Thanks Giorgos.

Use a netmask of 255.255.255.255 and move 'alias' at the end of the
command line.
