SLES9: Need an assist getting sub/virtual interface going
Hi all, I can configure a virtual interface on SLES9 using ifconfig, but obviously that won't survive a re-boot. Virtual interfaces configured in yast either do not activate at boot time or completely stop network configuration from working. Anyone seen this before or have any suggestions?

They work fine for me, fire up yast2
go to "Network Devices", "Network Card"
Pick the real interface you want to add a virtual on.
Edit it. Choose "Advanced" "Virtual Aliases"
Add your extra IP number there.
Finish etc.
What it will actually do is put 2 new lines
into /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth-id-
