The problem is not with the aliases - it is (as the message says) because
the default router is not on a local network. If the router is attached
via fxp0, then try adding an alias like this:
ifconfig_fxp0_alias2="inet 10.10.10.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
Then your system will know which interface to use to talk to 10.10.10.10.
