	Say I have a main server Ip address of (This is completely made up)
209.190.53.51, and I have 32 IP addresses blocked to it on 209.51.193.32-64
(or whatever, this is an example) would this alias line still be valid for
that? I've never done a server where the MAIN IP and the aliased IPs were on
different IP classes.

ifconfig_fxp0_alias0="inet 209.51.193.32 netmask 255.255.255.0" (is an
example of what im using for the aliases.)

Is there something special I need to do since these aren't on the same net?

Thanks,

-Drew
