Recently I posed a question about ifconfig and setting up alias IPs. Turns
out that the aliased IP need a netmask of 255.255.255.255 (then it works)
Is this "standard"? The reason I ask is that I have both SCO OpenServer
_and_ SCO UnixWare, and both of those OSes use the _same_ netmask as
the original IP.
Does the SysV implementation of ifconfig differ from that of the BSD one?
This seems like a very fundamental difference, and I'd really like to know
how it occured.
