Hi,
I have tried to use IP-Aliasing also but with something like
eth0:1 192.168.1.1/24
eth0:2 192.168.2.1/24
(your example is not so good because 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 are is same
subnet ;-))
as hardware it was an 3Com 3C59x 10/100 and an NE2000 noname, so for the
3Com IP-Aliasing was not possible but for the NE2000 ( !!?). An problem
with HW-Driver?
Aliasing was needed for an transition phase because we have changed our IP
range.
As circumvention we changed the IP range on all systems ( buh....) in 1
day, so IP-Aliasing was not needed anymore.

I want configure a Firewall with ipchains for a box with one external (Internet) and one internal ethernet cards. On the internal network I use two webserver machines. So I should configure two IP-Addresses on the external interface to point to the different webservers. 1. How do I configure two IP-Addresses on one ethernet interface?
Use alias devices. ifconfig eth0:1 10.0.0.1 ifconfig eth0:2 10.0.0.2 Bye, Thomas -- Thomas Biege, SuSE GmbH, Schanzaeckerstr. 10, 90443 Nuernberg E@mail: thomas@suse.de Function: Security Support & Auditing "lynx -source http://www.suse.de/~thomas/thomas.pgp | pgp -fka" Key fingerprint = 09 48 F2 FD 81 F7 E7 98 6D C7 36 F1 96 6A 12 47 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-security-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands, e-mail: suse-security-help@suse.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gerhard Possler "Wer neue Wege geht, braucht starke Partner."
