I just finished changing Class C's for my dialup users.  I was on 204.118.47.0, and I changed to 192.41.77.0.  My clients software is preset to have the gateway as 204.118.47.1, and DNS server as 204.118.47.5.  I aliased the router port to accept 204.118.47.1, and my DNS server to accept 204.118.47.5 requests.

For some reason, when the DNS servwer is set as 192.41.77.5, and an alias of 204.118.47.5 is installed, the server will not answer DNS queries if the DNS server is set as 204.118.47.5 in the software.

When I change to IP to 204.118.47.5 in /etc/sysconfig, and then alias 192.41.77.5 to the interface.  It will answer to queries set to 204.118.47.5, but not to 192.41.77.5.

I need the DNS server to answer to both 192.41.77.5, and 204.118.47.5.  I don't know why it's not, this is pretty wierd.
