there is a delete option to ifconfig and i have tried using it a few times but it has only worked for me once. what i have noticed is that if i type in "ifconfig ed0 www.whatever.com alias delete" where www.whatever.com is the IP address that is aliased the interface seems to stop working so i usually edit the rc.local file where i have the aliases listed and reboot. i hope this answers your question and if i am doing something wrong i hope that somebody will clue me in on what it is....on the other hand could this be a problem with ifconfig that i'm not aware of? ps. the systems that i have tried this on are 2.1.X and i haven't tried it on 2.2.x systems. i also don't really remember if i added the alias keyword or not but i think that i have tried it both ways with the same results. i'll have to do it again this weekend and document it so i get it straight.
