Where/how can I set the equivalent of "ifconfig eth0:1 x.x.x.x netmask etc" in Suse 8.0 yast.
As Roger has said, you cannot *do it* in YASt, but you can take what yast has done so far and modify it to get your old startup behaviour. Let us assume that you have set up the primary address for your card. Briefly, you need to investigate the contents of /etc/sysconfig/network. In there you will find ascii files relating to the card you have set up one address for using YaST (probably called ifcfg-eth0. This will contain lines like:
IPADDR=10.0.0.104 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 BROADCAST=10.0.0.255 NETWORK=10.0.0.0 STARTMODE=onboot
Look in the file ifcfg.template, where you will se the following advice
Unless SuSE have changed things to resemble Red Hat in version 8 this will get you nowhere. Assuming they havn't Then you'd need instead to edit /etc/rc.config Such that you had something like NETCONFIG="_0 _1" IPADDR_0="10.3.48.80" IPADDR_1="1.0.0.1" NETDEV_0="eth0" NETDEV_1="eth0:0" IFCONFIG_0="10.3.48.80 broadcast 10.3.51.255 netmask 255.255.252.0 up" IFCONFIG_1="1.0.0.1 broadcast 1.255.255.255 netmask 255.0.0.0 up"
