Having a problem adding IP address aliases for virtual web sites.  I add
the line:

ifconfig_ed0_alias0="inet 203.25.160.156 netmask 255.255.255.0"

to my /etc/rc.conf (FreeBSD 2.2.2) ...  Also add,

203.25.160.156    webology.webace.com.au webology

in my /etc/hosts file.

Now, strange thing is .. I can ping 203.25.160.156 from all other machines
on our LAN and from another provider.. but I can not ping 203.25.160.156
from the local console...

Any Ideas?
