>sinister# ifconfig vr0 66.118.153.254 66.118.153.255 alias
Read the ifconfig man page, under the "alias" subcommand:
If the address
is on the same subnet as the first network address for this
interface, a netmask of 0xffffffff has to be specified.
This has recently become mandatory. Yes, EEXISTS is an odd error to return
in this case.
[BTW: check your configs carefully, your netmasks
inet 66.118.153.66 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 66.118.153.255
inet 66.118.153.201 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 66.118.153.255
are screwed.]
