man ifconfig says:
alias Establish an additional network address for this interface. This
is sometimes useful when changing network numbers, and one
wishes
to accept packets addressed to the old interface. If the
address
is on the same subnet as the first network address for this
interface, a netmask of 0xffffffff has to be specified.
Netmask should be 255.255.255.255 I believe.
Good Luck,
Stephen Hilton
